Percentile |
: |
It is a value in an order set of measurement, that is calculated on the basis of percentage. |
Pie- chart |
: |
It is a circular diagram which is a circle (pie) divided by radii (like slices of a cake or pie) |
Platy kurtic |
: |
If the curve is flat-topped when compared to the normal curve then it is a platy kurtic curve. |
Point Estimate |
: |
A number computed from a sample, representing a population parameter. |
Population |
: |
A group of phenomena having something in common. |
Positive Correlation |
: |
A relationship between two variables such that when one increases the other also increases or when one decreases the other also decreases. |
Power |
: |
When a hypothesis is fall, the probability that a test will reject the null hypothesis is called Power. |
Probability |
: |
A quantity measure of the chances of an outcome or outcomes of a random experiment. |
Probability - Distribution |
: |
An unbroken ( smooth ) curve which indicates the frequency distribution of a continuous random variable. |
Random Error |
: |
Error that occur as a result of sampling variability. |
Random Sampling |
: |
It is the selection of individuals from the population in such a way that each individual of the population has the same chance of being selected i.e. a sample so selected must be a true representative of its population. This process of sampling is called random sampling. |
Range |
: |
The difference between the largest and the smallest value of a set. |
Region of acceptance |
: |
It is the area under a probability curve, in which a computed test statistics will lead to the acceptance of the null hypothesis . |
Region of Rejection |
: |
Area under the probability (normal) curve in which a computed test statistics will lead to the rejection of the null hypothesis. |
Regression |
: |
The estimation of the linear dependent of one or more independent variables on a dependent variable. |
Relative frequency |
: |
The ratio of a class frequency to the total frequency. |
Research Hypothesis |
: |
The expectation or prediction, that is to be tested by a researchers. |
