CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES n n n




CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is unlikely to occur.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-value, and state the strength of evidence it provides againstthe null
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




hypothesis. n




CLO1-3: Calculate a standardized statistic for a single proportion and evaluate the strength ofevidence it

provides against a null hypothesis.
n n n n n




CLO1-4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specifiedby the null
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




hypothesis, sample size, and one- vs. two-sided tests affect the strength of evidence against the null
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




hypothesis. n




CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.

LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a chance model of the ran-dom choice

between two events.

LO1.1-4: Identify whether or not study results are statistically significant and whether or not thechance

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

Do red uniform wearers tend to win more often than those wearing blue uniforms in Taekwondo

matches where competitors are randomly assigned to wear either a red or blue uniform? In a

3. Given below is the simulated distribution of the number of ―red wins‖ that could happen by chance

alone in a sample of 80 matches. Based on this simulation, is our observed result statistically

significant?

A. Yes, since 45 is larger than 40. n n n n n n




B. Yes, since the height of the dotplot above 45 is smaller than the height of thedotplot

above 40. n n




C. No, since 45 is a fairly typical outcome if the color of the winner‘s uniform was

determined by chance alone.
