What you'll learn
- Distinguish between populations and samples and choose appropriate descriptive statistics such as mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation for summarising data
- Calculate and interpret confidence intervals and apply the correct t-test (one-sample, independent, or paired) to draw conclusions from sample data
- Perform hypothesis testing by defining null and alternative hypotheses, calculating p-values, and interpreting results while accounting for Type 1 and Type 2 errors
