  2. Student's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-test

    The t-test p-value for the difference in means, and the regression p-value for the slope, are both 0.00805. The methods give identical results. This example shows that, for the special case of a simple linear regression where there is a single x-variable that has values 0 and 1, the t-test gives the same results as the linear regression. The ...

  3. Student's t-distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-distribution

    The following table lists values for t distributions with ν degrees of freedom for a range of one-sided or two-sided critical regions. The first column is ν , the percentages along the top are confidence levels α , {\displaystyle \ \alpha \ ,} and the numbers in the body of the table are the t α , n − 1 {\displaystyle t_{\alpha ,n-1 ...

  4. t-statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-statistic

    Most frequently, t statistics are used in Student's t-tests, a form of statistical hypothesis testing, and in the computation of certain confidence intervals. The key property of the t statistic is that it is a pivotal quantity – while defined in terms of the sample mean, its sampling distribution does not depend on the population parameters, and thus it can be used regardless of what these ...

  5. Test statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_statistic

    If there is interest in the marginal probability of obtaining a tail, only the number T out of the 100 flips that produced a tail needs to be recorded. But T can also be used as a test statistic in one of two ways: the exact sampling distribution of T under the null hypothesis is the binomial distribution with parameters 0.5 and 100.

  6. Hotelling's T-squared distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotelling's_T-squared...

    In statistics, particularly in hypothesis testing, the Hotelling's T-squared distribution (T 2), proposed by Harold Hotelling, [1] is a multivariate probability distribution that is tightly related to the F-distribution and is most notable for arising as the distribution of a set of sample statistics that are natural generalizations of the statistics underlying the Student's t-distribution.

  7. Statistical hypothesis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_hypothesis_test

    For example, the test statistic might follow a Student's t distribution with known degrees of freedom, or a normal distribution with known mean and variance. Select a significance level (α), the maximum acceptable false positive rate. Common values are 5% and 1%. Compute from the observations the observed value t obs of the test statistic T.

  8. Welch's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch's_t-test

    In statistics, Welch's t-test, or unequal variances t-test, is a two-sample location test which is used to test the (null) hypothesis that two populations have equal means. It is named for its creator, Bernard Lewis Welch , and is an adaptation of Student's t -test , [ 1 ] and is more reliable when the two samples have unequal variances and ...

  9. Paired difference test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paired_difference_test

    If we are able to pair students by an exact or estimated measure of their baseline mathematical ability, then we are only comparing students "within rows" of the table of means given above. Consequently, if the null hypothesis holds, the expected value of D will equal zero, and statistical significance levels have their intended interpretation.
