Basic
Idea
Sample
value
or
measurable
characteris)cs
of
a
sample
is
called
as
sta$s$cs
(e.g.,
sample
mean
or
X
)
Popula)on
value
or
measurable
characteris)cs
of
popula)on
is
called
as
parameter,
or
popula)on
parameter
(e.g.,
popula)on
mean
or
mu
or
)
Parameter
values
are
unknown,
popula)on
level
and
can
only
be
es)mated.
Sample
values
are
known,
sample
level
and
are
calculated.
Sample
values
change
with
each
sample
and
so
sample
values
are
random
variable.
Sample
values
are
es)mators
of
popula)on
values.
Process
of
es)ma)ng
popula)on
value
is
called
as
sta)s)cal
inference.
Sampling
Distribu+on
Sample
sta)s)cs
is
a
random
variable.
The
distribu)on
that
sample
sta)s)cs
follow
is
sampling
distribu)on.
For
example,
the
popula)on
mean
is
mu
and
sample
sta)s)cs
is
X
bar.
If
we
draw
large
number
of
samples
with
replacement
from
this
popula)on
and
obtain
those
many
X
bars,
the
distribu)on
followed
by
X
bars
is
called
as
sampling
distribu)on.
The
mean
of
such
a
distribu)on
is
mu
and
the
standard
devia)on
of
this
distribu)on
is
standard
error
of
mean.
In
general,
the
standard
devia)on
of
sampling
distribu)on
is
known
as
the
standard
error
of
sta$s$cs.
The
Null
Hypothesis
The
null
hypothesis
is
a
sta)s)cal
hypothesis
(
H0:
say
H
naught
or
H
zero
or
H
null)
that
is
tested
for
possible
rejec)on
under
the
assump)on
that
it
is
true.
Null
usually
implies
that
observa)ons
are
the
result
of
chance.
Null
sta)ng
that
popula)on
mean
is
zero
and
alterna)ve
sta)ng
that
popula)on
mean
is
not
zero:
H0:
= 0
HA:
0
