Testing Hypotheses

  • Chapter
Resampling Methods

Abstract

“Plan, Do, Check” is the strategy of big business in the 1990’s; it’s always been the underlying policy in science. In Chapter 1, we learned how to describe a sample and how to use the sample to describe and estimate the parameters of the population from which it was drawn. In Chapter 2, we learned how to develop hypotheses and frame them in the form of quantitative models. In this chapter, you’ll learn how to test the hypotheses and models you’ ve developed.
