We do not use a t-test for a one-sample test for proportion. We use the z distribution. I teach undergraduate and graduate statistics and have reviewed a dozen statistics textbooks and with 99% confidence, claim that we do not use the Student's t-distribution when testing a proportion. From the Stats Stackexchange: "The reason you can use a z-test with proportion data is because the standard deviation of a proportion is a function of the proportion itself. Thus, once you have estimated the proportion in your sample, you don't have an extra source of uncertainty that you have to take into account." Z distribution doesn't ask for sample size to determine the critical value, whereas t distribution does. However, as sample size gets large, z and t converge until t = z. For example, the sample size of 1000 would have no difference between z and t values.
The z-test for proportions is DERIVED from the binomial distribution under the assumption of a large sample size. The key idea behind this test is based on the Central Limit Theorem, which states that the distribution of the sample mean of a large enough sample will be approximately normally distributed, regardless of the shape of the underlying population distribution. hence you use z-test with proportion data
I took the data analytics course on Coursera and they also taught to use only a z-test for proportions. Rushed to the comments for confirmation so thank you lol
There is nothing wrong with the 1-sample z test. It produces the correct answers as long as you have the population parameters. But because we rarely have the population parameters we don't use it. Its not inherently flawed as implied by the host of the video. It's pretty easy to explain why it isn't used very often, like I just did. Otherwise, great video.
I was going to say the same thing. In addition, when the sample is greater than 30, both tests are pretty much the same. For the Chi-square, he should have said that each "bin" needs to have more than five observations. Two of them were below five.
@@Canuck1000do you know the difference of 2 sample t-test proportion vs chi squared? I feel they are quite interchangeable, like the depression example he mentioned. Can it be used for chi-squared as well?
@@claireli5044 The issue that is discussed here is the z-test vs t-test (population vs sample). The z-test is valid if we know the information about the entire population, but is very difficult to obtain as Z3r0 said above. It should not be automatically rejected. In the end, if n>30, both tests will give you the same results (if it is a sample still use the t-test though).
@@claireli5044 Hi, isn't the t-test for comparing the means of two or more different continuous variables and the chi-squared test for nominal and/or ordinal variables? If I am not mistaken I don't think they are interchangeable. I would appreciate it if someone can correct my understanding. Thank you.
I am from the university of Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria and l have never learned well during the masters degree statistics classes l took for one year+ but you make it look simple. You are a good communicator and l feel more confident about my statistics knowledge because of you.
Great video! Just wanted to share my 2 cents. We don't use z tests because they require for us to have the population statistics (population mean and standard deviation) to do our analysis whereas in a T-test we just require the sample statistics (sample mean and standard deviation) to go ahead. Since in many cases we are just comparing 2 samples and we might not have the population statistics (especially standard deviation),we use T-tests instead of the z tests. Hope this helps!
Just to add a little more, you dont need the population mean to perform a z-test but you need the population standard deviation (which you never really have in practice). If you needed the population mean, then doing a test for the mean would be beyond pointless
@@raideryvs5595 not sure about this. What about a case where a machine is claimed to produce products of size X and we have to look at a sample's Mean and Std to validate that ? Here we have 'claimed' population mean available to us.
Simply the greatest explanation. I spent hours trying to get the main gist and difference of all these confusing test. This video was the brilliant saver for me. Thank you so much !!!!!
This was super helpful in so many levels. Not only did you described the tests in detail without hassle but it helped me understand when to use them. Thanks!!
I’m not statistician but I’ve been in the statistics classes at least all three or four you might take during your undergraduate year and when you learn about those particular test they also tell you when you should use them. That’s part of learning about the actual test. I think that’s where we’re having a breakdown in the education process now statistics is more college level but even on a more basic level we might learn how to do math but we don’t learn the principles behind the mathematics you should learn the principles behind the statistics tests then you know when to use them
@@joed2444 ohh I see. I should add then that this video really only tells you things to memorize about these topics. If you dive deeper into the mathematics behind every statistical test, you will not need to remember what test to apply in which situation, it will just make sense. Just my two cents if in case you are interested in studying stats.
I’m a mechanical engineer. Of course we took the appropriate statistics and probability class but never saw the real significance until my 5th year of being an engineer and working at GE healthcare. Now I apply the DMAIC approach as much as needed.
You are damn right, buddy! I had such a similar experience, and I believe to many out there! I found that the DMAIC thing of LSS is so interesting. So, you are practising it within the healthcare industry? Wow, that is great!. Maybe we can catch up for more experience sharing...😊
Thank you very very much I have an exam tomorrow and you explained it clearly that I understand now I really appreciate your efforts you are a genius thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
You use the Z-test when you know something about the population standard deviation. This doesn't happen very often, so the t-test is more common. Saying you should never use it, or that it's "bad" or "dumb" or "unprofessional" is just NOT accurate. It's just more RARELY used. Throwing it out shows a lack of understanding.
Ok, first, I love the way you present the information = terrific!!! 2nd soooo easy to understand; you speak in everyday language. thank you so much for this video, I got it!!
Hello, This lecture has helped me to understand using T and ANOVA Test on categorical variable. Previous my thought was T and ANOVA is used only for MEAN difference.
Thanks so much for sharing the knowledge... for FREE! However, one of my statistics teachers, used to say to me to use t-test for a small sample size i.e., of less than 30 with unknown standard deviation of a population with a normal distribution property. That explanation still holds?
Kody, Thank you so much. I have spent days trying to figure out ANOVA versus Chi Square versus T tests and so on, and you made it so easy. I am really grateful --and also a little baffled that so many other sources make it so complex.
For whatever distribution shape of population, you take a sample of size >25, the average value (mean) itself is normal distribution, and you use Z-test. For a smaller sample size, we need to consider degree of freedom, then you use t-test.
Here it is.... (love youtube) I figured if I looked long enough...someone will have stumbled on some of the reasons why Z-Tests are still used quite often. Outside of this however...very clear explanations some of which I enjoyed revisiting from my days long past doing this stuff regularly.
Theres no such thing as t-test for proportion. As tests involving single and two proportions, which are technically binomial, may only be estimated by a normal distribution (hence, z test), and not by t-distribution.
Hi Sir, i need your help. From below info, what you understand. Can you explain to me, pls? Hypothesis i) There is a positive relationship between salary and employee retention - BETA VALUE (-0.379), Pearson Correlation (-0.289) Result : Accepted ii) There is a positive relationship between communication and employee retention - BETA Value (-0.159), Pearson Correlation (0.110), Result (Accepted) iii) There is a positive relationship between job satisfaction and employee retention which impact their decision to stay : BETA Value (-0.115), Pearson Correlation (-0.136), Result (Rejected)
I think proportions are for categorical response or variables and not qualitative as said here, qualitative research itself its so much complicated with thematic or content analysis of codes and quotes, regarding Z and t test I think its about sample size that dictates which one to be used, I stand to be corrected if I am wrong
You mentioned in 4:40 about t-test for one proportion, which DOES NOT exist because Z-tests for proportions are based on approximation of normal (hence, z) to binomial distribution so it's only z-test for proportion. In times like the sample size is so low in testing a single proportion, then some nonparametric test may be used, like the binomial test.
Hopefully, I can gain a better understanding of this topic. My 2nd take with Probability and Statistics for my undergraduate degree in Psychology (Science) via Online.
Thank you so much! I wish every statistics class started this way. Getting to look at the bigger picture first and then jumping into details is always a better way to learn things.
Thank you for the explanation!! A quick question please: I measured the hardness of a material 2 times (before and after heat treatment), then I represented it with 2 box plots. Now I want to compare the 2 box with each other. For this I need to know when the boxes are significant. Can I use Chi square method? by the others technics, icant calculate p.value with exel. Thank you again!!
Z test for proportions T test for means Chi Squared Goodness of Fit for 1 sample with 1 variable to test if it is different for the population (ie test if the distribution of race is different in 1975 population to the 1980 sample) Chi Squared Independence for 1 sample with 2 variables to test if they are independent (ie test if chess and IQ scores are associated) Chi Squared Homogeneity for 2 samples with 1 variables to see if they have the same distribution (ie to test if men and women have the same distribution of living arrangements) T test for slope
When he talked about the 2-independent sample test for mean, 2-independent sample test for proportion, and paired sample test, are those all t-tests just with different null and alternative hypotheses? Or are there different ways to do those tests other than the t statistic?
everyone in the comments are saying that some tests are 'better' to use than others ( t test is better than z test) but i have always thought that each hypothesis test only had 1 test/method that you could use. do some exam questions have multiple tests that can be done on them to get the same result and if so what tests can be used instead of others. thanks
Hi Kody. Thanks for this clear explanation of the Anova. However, what's interesting me is only the difference between the control group and the treatment groups. I am not interested in the compaison of treatment groups between them. So what's the use for an Anova? Are T-test between the control group and each treatment groups separately enough? has Anova a role in increasing the statistical power compare to multiple T-tests?
Every time you conduct a t-test there is a chance that you will make a Type I error. This error is usually 5%. By running two t-tests on the same data you will have increased your chance of "making a mistake" to 10%. The formula for determining the new error rate for multiple t-tests is not as simple as multiplying 5% by the number of tests. However, if you are only making a few multiple comparisons, the results are very similar if you do. As such, three t-tests would be 15% (actually, 14.3%) and so on. These are unacceptable errors. An ANOVA controls for these errors so that the Type I error remains at 5% and you can be more confident that any statistically significant result you find is not just running lots of tests.
Besides a couple of mistakes, good explanations! Thanks! You lack theoretical grasp apparently, but you've got great practical understanding of the concepts. I'm not sure the z-test is as biased as you think and, therefore, completely useless. You need to know the parameters of the actual population in order to use it. That's probably why it's less common.
Hello, this lecture has helped me much, thank you for that. I have one question if u could kindly answer,, Is there is a test that can draw a correlation using both quantitative and qualitative variables?
