CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES ss ss ss




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 againstthe null

hypothesis.

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

ofevidence it provides against a null hypothesis.

CLO1-4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specifiedby the
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss s ss



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



against the null hypothesis.

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

LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing simulation.

thechance model is a plausible explanation for the data.

Taekwondo matches where competitors are randomly assigned to wear either a red or blue
