CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES
CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is
unlikely to occur.
CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-value, and state the strength of
evidence it provides against the null hypothesis.
CLO1-3: Calculate a standardized statistic for a single proportion and
evaluate the strength of evidence it provides against a null
hypothesis.
CLO1-4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the
parameter value specified by the null hypothesis, sample size, and
one- vs. two-sided tests affect the strength of evidence against the
null hypothesis.
CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.
Section 1.1: Introduction to Chance Models
LO1.1-1: Recognize the difference between parameters and statistics.
LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a

, chance model of the ran- dom choice between two events.
LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing
simulation.
LO1.1-4: Identify whether or not study results are statistically
significant and whether or not the chance model is a plausible
explanation for the data.
LO1.1-5: Implement the 3S strategy: find a statistic, simulate results
from a chance model, and comment on strength of evidence
against observed study results happening by chance alone.
LO1.1-6: Differentiate between saying the chance model is plausible and
the chance model is the correct explanation for the observed data.
