  2. Homework due – Thursday (October 10th) On class website: Please complete homework worksheet #9 Creating distributions and tying together with z scores and probability

  3. Please read before our next exam (October 24th) - Chapters 5 - 11 in Lind book - Chapters 10, 11, 12 & 14 in Plous book: Lind Chapter 5: Survey of Probability Concepts Chapter 6: Discrete Probability Distributions Chapter 7: Continuous Probability Distributions Chapter 8: Sampling Methods and CLT Chapter 9: Estimation and Confidence Interval Chapter 10: One sample Tests of Hypothesis Chapter 11: Two sample Tests of Hypothesis Plous Chapter 10: The Representativeness Heuristic Chapter 11: The Availability Heuristic Chapter 12: Probability and Risk Chapter 14: The Perception of Randomness We’ll be jumping around some…we will start with chapter 7

  4. Use this as your study guide By the end of lecture today10/8/13 Measures of variability Standard deviation and Variance Counting ‘standard deviationses’ – z scores Connecting raw scores, z scores and probabilityConnecting probability, proportion and area of curve Percentiles

  5. Mean = 100 Standard deviation = 5 If we go up one standard deviation z score = +1.0 and raw score = 105 If we go down one standard deviation z score = -1.0 and raw score = 95 85 90 95 100 105 110 115 If we go up two standard deviations z score = +2.0 and raw score = 110 If we go down two standard deviations z score = -2.0 and raw score = 90 85 90 95 100 105 110 115 If we go up three standard deviations z score = +3.0 and raw score = 115 If we go down three standard deviations z score = -3.0 and raw score = 85 85 90 95 100 105 110 115 z score: A score that indicates how many standard deviations an observation is above or below the mean of the distribution z score = raw score - mean standard deviation

  6. Raw scores, z scores & probabilities • Notice: • 3 types of numbers • raw scores • z scores • probabilities z = -2 z = +2 Mean = 50 S = 10 (Note S = standard deviation) If we go up two standard deviations z score = +2.0 and raw score = 70 If we go down two standard deviations z score = -2.0 and raw score = 30

  7. z = -1 z = 1 Normal distribution -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 z scores -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 z scores raw scores In z-score distribution mean = 0 standard deviation = 1 In a normal distribution mean = µstandard deviation = σ

  8. Characteristics of Normal Distribution We’re talking about distribution of raw scores Normal Distribution How would you describe the shape? Symmetric and bell-shaped Shape

  9. Characteristics of Normal Distribution Normal Distribution What is the standard deviation? σ Standard Deviation Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  10. Characteristics of Normal Distribution Normal Distribution What is the mean? µ Mean Standard Deviationσ Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  11. Characteristics of Normal Distribution Normal Distribution What is the theoretical range? -∞< X < +∞ Domain Mean µ Standard Deviationσ Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  12. Characteristics of Normal Distribution What is the ‘practical’ range(covers 99.7% of curve) Normal Distribution µ - 3σ< X < µ + 3σ -∞< X < +∞ Domain Mean µ Standard Deviationσ Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  13. Characteristics of Normal Distribution Once we know the mean (anchor point) and standard deviation (spread) we can define any normal curve Normal Distribution Parameters µ = population σ= population standard deviation -∞< X < +∞ Domain Mean µ Standard Deviationσ Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  14. Characteristics of Normal Distribution Normal Distribution Parameters µ = population σ= population standard deviation -∞< X < +∞ Domain Mean µ Standard Deviationσ Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  15. Characteristics of Standard Normal Distribution (distribution of z-scores) Normal Distribution How would you describe the shape? Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  16. Characteristics of Standard Normal Distribution (curve of z-scores) Normal Distribution The standard deviation in a z-distribution is always 1 (when you go up one standard deviation go up one z score) Standard Deviation 1 Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  17. Characteristics of Standard Normal Distribution (curve of z-scores) Normal Distribution What z-score is associated with the mean of the distribution? Mean 0 Standard Deviation1 Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  18. Characteristics of Standard Normal Distribution Normal Distribution What is the theoretical range? -∞< Z < +∞ Domain Mean 0 Standard Deviation1 Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  19. Characteristics of Standard Normal Distribution Normal Distribution Parameters µ = population σ= population standard deviation -∞< Z < +∞ Domain Mean 0 Standard Deviation1 Shape Symmetric and bell-shaped

  47. . Writing Assignment (also Homework #9)Comparing distributions (mean and variability) • Think of examples for these three situations • same mean but different variability • same variability but different means • same mean and same variability (different groups) • estimate standard deviation • calculate variance • for each curve find the raw score for the z’s given Remember: number lines equally spaced
