    4. are statistically independent.
    5. are normally distributed.
  1. You read a paper where a chi-square test produces a p-value of 0.999 (not 0.001). You think:75
    1. H0 is definitely true
    2. H0 is definitely not true
    3. The authors’ hypothesis is in the wrong direction.
    4. Maybe they falsified their data?

  24. (e): (a), (c), (d)

    1. σ2 (the first two are statistics, not parameters, we can’t isolate μ because it isn’t involved, and χ also isn’t a parameter)
    1. μ (the first two are statistics, not parameters, we can’t isolate σ2 because it isn’t involved, and χ also isn’t a parameter)
    1. a little bit more than 1 (dividing by s instead of σ adds variability to the distribution)
    1. 50 observations in each bootstrap sample
    1. 1000
    1. the sample statistic
    1. Resampling with replacement from the original sample. Although I suppose (c) is also true.
    1. The difference between a sampling distribution mean and the actual parameter.
    1. -0.009 Bias is what the statistic is (on average) minus the true value. Recall, we are using the data as a proxy for the population, so the “truth” is the data. So in the bootstrap setting, the average is over the bootstrapped values and the true value is the sample mean.
    1. σ2 (the first two are statistics, not parameters, we can’t isolate μ because it isn’t involved, and χ also isn’t a parameter)
    1. μ (the first two are statistics, not parameters, we can’t isolate σ2 because it isn’t involved, and χ also isn’t a parameter)
    1. c2 set to infinity
    1. In many repeated samples, 90% of intervals like this one will contain the true average number of chips.
    1. In many repeated samples, 90% of intervals like this one will contain the true average number of chips.
    1. N(0,1/0). Or rather, to get the frequentist result, you need the joint improper priors to have μ0=λ0=β0=0 and α0=−1/2.
    1. The MGF is usually easiest if g is any kind of linear combination. If not, you might need (b) find the cdf. You’ll need to find the cdf to get the pdf, which you might need to identify the distribution. (note: can’t identify a distribution using only the first two moments, (d))
    1. find the MGF (note: can’t identify a distribution using only the first two moments, (d))
    1. the parameters from the likelihood
    1. the data and (c) the prior parameters
    1. 22.5 ± z(.975) * 2.334
    1. A bootstrap BCa interval (although out of the ones we’ve covered, (b) A bootstrap-t confidence interval is most accurate)
    1. can be done for statistics with unknown sampling distributions
    1. the variability of the MLE from sample to sample.
    1. determines how precise the estimator is.
    1. allows us to do inference (about the population value).
    1. m(θ)=θ.
    1. one
    1. all of the above
    1. type I error too high
    1. To find the rejection region / critical region
    1. Control type I error
    1. 1- π(θ|δ)
    1. infθ∈Ω1π(θ|δ) = always really small
    1. the power of the test. or (d) the probability of type II error. (they are functions of one another)
    1. it provides the test statistic
    1. has the highest possible power in Ω1 subject to controlling α(δ).
    1. it is monotonic with respect to the likelihood ratio
    1. gives the distribution of the test statistic
    1. Increases power (over Ω1)
    1. Decreases power (over Ω1)
    1. Increases your power (over Ω1)
    1. The proportion that do not contain zero.
    1. the non-central t-distribution is tricky.
    1. If the MLE is in the null space, we won’t reject H0.

  69. Λ(x)≥1

    1. False
    1. two-sided, and we only consider the upper end of the sampling distribution
    1. Likelihood under H1 is too hard to write down (what likelihood would we use for the situation of “not Poisson”?)
    1. 5
    1. are statistically independent.
    1. Maybe they falsified their data?
