Confidence Interval Estimate: a range of values so constructed that a specified proportion of the intervals costructed that way would contain the true value of a parameter. Critical Value: a point on ...

The linkage disequilibrium method is currently the most widely used single sample estimator of genetic effective population size. The commonly used software packages come with two options, referred to ...

A modified sequential procedure is put forward for the problem of estimating the mean of a normal population by a confidence interval of prescribed width and confidence coefficient, when the ...

Paired-samples designs are used frequently in educational and behavioral research. In applications where the response variable is quantitative, researchers are encouraged to supplement the results of ...

This applet allows users to drag sliders to change the confidence level and sample size. The applet helps users visualize the meaning of the phrase "C% confidence," by showing that C% of the samples ...

Confidence intervals are computed from a random sample and therefore they are also random. The long run behavior of a 95% confidence interval is such that we’d expect 95% of the confidence intervals ...
