Applied Statistics: Module 3
Module overview:
Beyond a Best Guess: Adding Precision With Confidence Intervals
Inferential statistics focuses on two main ideas: estimation and hypothesis testing. Estimation calculates a numeric “point estimate” and also includes a measure of precision of that estimate. Module Two covered the application of the normal distribution to data samples. This module continues that process by first focusing on obtaining estimates of population proportions and population means and then determining the precision of those estimates by constructing and interpreting confidence intervals.
