Able to do hypothesis test about population mean when σ is known 4. Able to do hypothesis test about population mean when σ is unknown Slide 2 1
2 Null and Alternative Hypotheses Hypothesis testing can be used to determine whether a statement about the value of a population parameter should or should not be rejected. The null hypothesis, denoted by H, is a tentative assumption about a population parameter. The alternative hypothesis, denoted by H a, is the opposite of what is stated in the null hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis is what the test is attempting to establish. Slide 3 Null and Alternative Hypotheses: Applications Testing Research Hypotheses The research hypothesis should be expressed as the alternative hypothesis. The conclusion that the research hypothesis is true comes from sample data that contradict the null hypothesis. Slide 4 2
3 Null and Alternative Hypotheses: Applications Testing the Validity of a Claim Manufacturers claims are usually given the benefit of the doubt and stated as the null hypothesis. The conclusion that the claim is false comes from sample data that contradict the null hypothesis. Slide 5 Null and Alternative Hypotheses: Applications Testing in Decision-Making Situations A decision maker might have to choose between two courses of action, one associated with the null hypothesis and another associated with the alternative hypothesis. Example: Accepting a shipment of goods from a supplier or returning the shipment of goods to the supplier Slide 6 3
4 Summary of Forms for Null and Alternative Hypotheses about a Population Mean The equality part of the hypotheses always appears in the null hypothesis. In general, a hypothesis test about the value of a population mean µ must take one of the following three forms (where µ is the hypothesized value of the population mean). H : µ µ : a < H µ µ One-tailed (lower-tail) H : µ µ : a > H µ µ One-tailed (upper-tail) H : µ = µ : a H µ µ Two-tailed Slide 7 Null and Alternative Hypotheses Example: Metro EMS A major west coast city provides one of the most comprehensive emergency medical services in the world. Operating in a multiple hospital system with approximately 2 mobile medical units, the service goal is to respond to medical emergencies with a mean time of 12 minutes or less. Slide 8 4
5 Null and Alternative Hypotheses Example: Metro EMS The director of medical services wants to formulate a hypothesis test that could use a sample of emergency response times to determine whether or not the service goal of 12 minutes or less is being achieved. Slide 9 Null and Alternative Hypotheses H : µ < 12 H a : µ > 12 The emergency service is meeting the response goal; no follow-up action is necessary. The emergency service is not meeting the response goal; appropriate follow-up action is necessary. where: µ = mean response time for the population of medical emergency requests Slide 1 5
6 Type I Error Because hypothesis tests are based on sample data, we must allow for the possibility of errors. A Type I error is rejecting H when it is true. The probability of making a Type I error when the null hypothesis is true as an equality is called the level of significance. Applications of hypothesis testing that only control the Type I error are often called significance tests. Slide 11 Type II Error A Type II error is accepting H when it is false. It is difficult to control for the probability of making a Type II error. Statisticians avoid the risk of making a Type II error by using do not reject H and not accept H. Slide 12 6
7 Type I and Type II Errors Population Condition Conclusion Accept H (Conclude µ < 12) H True (µ < 12) Correct Decision H False (µ > 12) Type II Error (β) Reject H (Conclude µ > 12) Type I Error (α) Correct Decision Slide 13 p-value Approach to One-Tailed Hypothesis Testing The p-value is the probability, computed using the test statistic, that measures the support (or lack of support) provided by the sample for the null hypothesis. If the p-value is less than or equal to the level of significance α, the value of the test statistic is in the rejection region. Reject H if the p-value < α. Slide 14 7
8 Lower-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: p-value Approach p-value < α, so reject H. α =.1 p-value =.72 Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n z = z α = z Slide 15 Upper-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: p-value Approach Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n p-value < α, so reject H. α =.4 p-value =.11 z α = 1.75 z = 2.29 z Slide 16 8
9 Critical Value Approach to One-Tailed Hypothesis Testing The test statistic z has a standard normal probability distribution. We can use the standard normal probability distribution table to find the z-value with an area of α in the lower (or upper) tail of the distribution. The value of the test statistic that established the boundary of the rejection region is called the critical value for the test. The rejection rule is: Lower tail: Reject H if z < -z α Upper tail: Reject H if z > z α Slide 17 Lower-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: Critical Value Approach Reject H α =.1 Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n Do Not Reject H z α = 1.28 z Slide 18 9
10 Upper-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: Critical Value Approach Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n Do Not Reject H α =.5 Reject H z α = z Slide 19 Steps of Hypothesis Testing Step 1. Develop the null and alternative hypotheses. Step 2. Specify the level of significance α. Step 3. Collect the sample data and compute the test statistic. p-value Approach Step 4. Use the value of the test statistic to compute the p-value. Step 5. Reject H if p-value < α. Slide 2 1
11 Steps of Hypothesis Testing Critical Value Approach Step 4. Use the level of significance to determine the critical value and the rejection rule. Step 5. Use the value of the test statistic and the rejection rule to determine whether to reject H. Slide 21 One-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: Example: Metro EMS The response times for a random sample of 4 medical emergencies were tabulated. The sample mean is minutes. The population standard deviation is believed to be 3.2 minutes. The EMS director wants to perform a hypothesis test, with a.5 level of significance, to determine whether the service goal of 12 minutes or less is being achieved. Slide 22 11
12 One-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p -Value and Critical Value Approaches 1. Develop the hypotheses. H : µ < 12 H a : µ > Specify the level of significance. α =.5 3. Compute the value of the test statistic. x µ z = = = σ / n 3.2/ Slide 23 One-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p Value Approach 4. Compute the p value. For z = 2.47, cumulative probability = p value = = Determine whether to reject H. Because p value =.68 < α =.5, we reject H. We are at least 95% confident that Metro EMS is not meeting the response goal of 12 minutes. Slide 24 12
13 One-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p Value Approach Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n α =.5 p-value =.68 z α = z = 2.47 z Slide 25 One-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: Critical Value Approach 4. Determine the critical value and rejection rule. For α =.5, z.5 = Reject H if z > Determine whether to reject H. Because 2.47 > 1.645, we reject H. We are at least 95% confident that Metro EMS is not meeting the response goal of 12 minutes. Slide 26 13
14 p-value Approach to Two-Tailed Hypothesis Testing Compute the p-value using the following three steps: 1. Compute the value of the test statistic z. 2. If z is in the upper tail (z > ), find the area under the standard normal curve to the right of z. If z is in the lower tail (z < ), find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of z. 3. Double the tail area obtained in step 2 to obtain the p value. The rejection rule: Reject H if the p-value < α. Slide 27 Critical Value Approach to Two-Tailed Hypothesis Testing The critical values will occur in both the lower and upper tails of the standard normal curve. Use the standard normal probability distribution table to find z α/2 (the z-value with an area of α/2 in the upper tail of the distribution). The rejection rule is: Reject H if z < -z α/2 or z > z α/2. Slide 28 14
15 Example: Glow Toothpaste Two-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: The production line for Glow toothpaste is designed to fill tubes with a mean weight of 6 oz. Periodically, a sample of 3 tubes will be selected in order to check the filling process. Quality assurance procedures call for the continuation of the filling process if the sample results are consistent with the assumption that the mean filling weight for the population of toothpaste tubes is 6 oz.; otherwise the process will be adjusted. oz. Glow Slide 29 Example: Glow Toothpaste Two-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: Assume that a sample of 3 toothpaste tubes provides a sample mean of 6.1 oz. The population standard deviation is believed to be.2 oz. Perform a hypothesis test, at the.3 level of significance, to help determine whether the filling process should continue operating or be stopped and corrected. oz. Glow Slide 3 15
16 Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p Value and Critical Value Approaches Glow 1. Determine the hypotheses. H : µ = 6 H a : µ Specify the level of significance. α =.3 3. Compute the value of the test statistic. x µ z = = = σ / n.2/ Slide 31 Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p Value Approach Glow 4. Compute the p value. For z = 2.74, cumulative probability =.9969 p value = 2(1.9969) = Determine whether to reject H. Because p value =.62 < α =.3, we reject H. We are at least 97% confident that the mean filling weight of the toothpaste tubes is not 6 oz. Slide 32 16
17 Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: p-value Approach Glow 1/2 p -value =.31 1/2 p -value =.31 α/2 =.15 z = z α/2 = α/2 =.15 z z = 2.74 z α/2 = 2.17 Slide 33 Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: Critical Value Approach 4. Determine the critical value and rejection rule. For α/2 =.3/2 =.15, z.15 = 2.17 Reject H if z < or z > Determine whether to reject H. Because 2.47 > 2.17, we reject H. We are at least 97% confident that the mean filling weight of the toothpaste tubes is not 6 oz. Glow Slide 34 17
18 Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean: Critical Value Approach Glow Sampling distribution x of z = µ σ / n Reject H α/2 =.15 Do Not Reject H Reject H α/2 = z Slide 35 Confidence Interval Approach to Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean Select a simple random sample from the population and use the value of the sample mean x to develop the confidence interval for the population mean µ. (Confidence intervals are covered in Chapter 8.) If the confidence interval contains the hypothesized value µ, do not reject H. Otherwise, reject H. Slide 36 18
19 Confidence Interval Approach to Two-Tailed Tests About a Population Mean The 97% confidence interval for µ is σ x ± z α /2 = 6.1 ± 2.17(.2 3) = 6.1 ±.7924 n or to Because the hypothesized value for the population mean, µ = 6, is not in this interval, the hypothesis-testing conclusion is that the null hypothesis, H : µ = 6, can be rejected. Glow Slide 37 In-class exercise #1 (p.355) (one-tail test) #11 (p.355) (two-tail test) Slide 38 19
20 Test Statistic Tests About a Population Mean: σ Unknown t = x µ s / n This test statistic has a t distribution with n -1 degrees of freedom. Slide 39 Tests About a Population Mean: σ Unknown Rejection Rule: p -Value Approach Reject H if p value < α Rejection Rule: Critical Value Approach H : µ > µ Reject H if t < -t α H : µ < µ Reject H if t > t α H : µ = µ Reject H if t < - t α/2 or t > t α/2 Slide 4 2
21 p -Values and the t Distribution The format of the t distribution table provided in most statistics textbooks does not have sufficient detail to determine the exact p-value for a hypothesis test. However, we can still use the t distribution table to identify a range for the p-value. An advantage of computer software packages is that the computer output will provide the p-value for the t distribution. Slide 41 Example: Highway Patrol One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown A State Highway Patrol periodically samples vehicle speeds at various locations on a particular roadway. The sample of vehicle speeds is used to test the hypothesis H : µ < 65 The locations where H is rejected are deemed the best locations for radar traps. Slide 42 21
22 Example: Highway Patrol One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown At Location F, a sample of 64 vehicles shows a mean speed of 66.2 mph with a standard deviation of 4.2 mph. Use α =.5 to test the hypothesis. Slide 43 One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown p Value and Critical Value Approaches 1. Determine the hypotheses. H : µ < 65 H a : µ > Specify the level of significance. α =.5 3. Compute the value of the test statistic. x µ t = = = s / n 4.2/ Slide 44 22
23 One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown p Value Approach 4. Compute the p value. For t = 2.286, the p value must be less than.25 (for t = 1.998) and greater than.1 (for t = 2.387)..1 < p value < Determine whether to reject H. Because p value < α =.5, we reject H. We are at least 95% confident that the mean speed of vehicles at Location F is greater than 65 mph. Slide 45 One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown Critical Value Approach 4. Determine the critical value and rejection rule. For α =.5 and d.f. = 64 1 = 63, t.5 = Reject H if t > Determine whether to reject H. Because > 1.669, we reject H. We are at least 95% confident that the mean speed of vehicles at Location F is greater than 65 mph. Location F is a good candidate for a radar trap. Slide 46 23
24 One-Tailed Test About a Population Mean: σ Unknown Reject H Do Not Reject H α =.5 t α = t Slide 47 In-class exercise #23 (p.362) (one-tail test) #24 (p.362) (two-tail test) Slide 48 24
