12 Chapter 10: Inference Involving Two Populations Daniel B. Rowe, Ph.D. Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science 1

13 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10.1 Dependent and Independent Samples In this chapter we will have samples from two populations. The two populations can either be dependent or independent. Dependent Samples: If samples have related pairs. Random sample of married couples. Male Height vs. Female Height Independent Samples: If samples are unrelated. Random sample of males, Random Sample of females. Male Height vs. Female Height 13

14 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference Concerning the Mean Difference Using Two Dependent Samples When we have dependent samples, there is a commonality between the two items in the pair. Quite often before and after. Population 1: Population : 1 c before common mean c after common mean But we re interested in the difference in means: 1 ( c before ) ( c after ) before after common mean subtracts out 14

15 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples We form a paired difference from the data Paired Difference d x x 1 (10.1) This means that we are subtracting the sample value from population from the sample value from population 1. 15

16 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples Imagine that we have paired data ( x1,1, x,1),...,( x1, n, x, n), population j, observation i where j=1, i=1,,n. x ji, We form a paired difference from the data d1 x1,1 x,1, d x1, x,,..., dn x1, n x, n. d x x i 1, i, i When paired observations are randomly selected from normal populations, the paired difference, di x1, i x, i will be approximately normally distributed about a mean with a standard deviation. d d 16

17 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples So if the d i s are approximately normally distributed with a mean of and a standard deviation of, then d 1 n di n i 1 d is normally distributed (recall CLT) with a mean d d d, and standard deviation d. n d 17

18 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples This would allow us to form a z statistic for the mean of d d differences d, z with a standard normal distribution. / n d assuming known We can then look up probabilities in the table, find critical values z(α/), construct confidence intervals d d z( / ) d n 0d and test hypotheses using z*. / n d Figure from Johnson & Kuby,

19 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples However, as in Inferences for One Population, we never know the true value of standard deviation s d. This changes to t d s d / d n d. So we estimate it with sample and the distribution from standard normal n 1 to Student t with df=n-1 where sd ( di d ). n 1 z d i1 d / d n 19

20 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples Confidence Interval Procedure With unknown, a 1-α confidence interval for is: d Confidence Interval for Mean Difference (Dependent Samples) d sd sd t( df, / ) to d t( df, / ) n n where df=n-1 d (10.) d 1 d (10.3) s d d (10.4) 1 n i n i 1 n d ( i ) n 1 i1 0

21 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples Example: Construct a 95% CI for mean difference in Brand B A tire wear. d 8, 1, 9, 1, 1, 9 1 n i s: d di n 6 df 5 n i 1 t( df, / ) n d sd ( di d ) n 1 i1 sd sd d t( df, / ) n Figure from Johnson & Kuby, 01. 1

22 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples Hypothesis Testing Procedure We can test for differences in the population means: H 0 : μ 1 μ vs. H a : μ 1 <μ H 0 : μ 1 -μ 0 vs. H a : μ 1 -μ <0 H 0 : μ 1 μ vs. H a : μ 1 >μ H 0 : μ 1 -μ 0 vs. H a : μ 1 -μ >0 H 0 : μ 1 =μ vs. H a : μ 1 μ H 0 : μ 1 -μ =0 vs. H a : μ 1 -μ 0 μ d =μ 1 -μ H 0 : μ d 0 vs. H a : μ d <0 (μ d = μ before - μ after ) H 0 : μ d 0 vs. H a : μ d >0 H 0 : μ d =0 vs. H a : μ d 0 3

23 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples Hypothesis Testing Procedure With unknown, the test statistic for is: d d Test Statistic for Mean Difference (Dependent Samples) d t* s d / d 0 n where df=n-1 (10.5) Go through the same five hypothesis testing steps. 4

24 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10. Inference for Mean Difference Two Dependent Samples n 6 8, 1, 9, 1, 1, 9 Example: Test mean difference of Brand B minus Brand A is zero. Step 1 Step Step 5 Step 3 Step 4 Figures from Johnson & Kuby, 01. 5

25 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10.3 Inference for Mean Difference Two Independent Samples For Normal said that mean( x) and variance( x). n We are often interested in comparisons between means x x. There s a rule that says that if and have means and, then mean( x x ) 1 1 and variances and, 1 1 and variance x1 x x. 1 x n n n n if x 1 & x independent 1 1 x1 x

26 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10.3 Inference for Mean Difference Two Independent Samples Means Using Two Independent Samples If two populations are independent we can construct confidence intervals and test hypotheses for the difference in their means. If independent samples of sizes n 1 and n are drawn with means μ 1 and μ and variances 1 and, then the sampling distribution of x1 x has 1. mean x 1x 1 and 1. standard error x1 x n1 n If both pops. are normal, then x x is normal. (10.6) 1 Actually the CLT works here for x s. 8

27 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10.3 Inference for Mean Difference Two Independent Samples However, the true population variances are never truly known 1 so we estimate and by and and the s 1 s standard error by x x 1 s x x 1 1 n n 1 s 1 s n n 1. (10.6) (10.7) 9

28 10: Inferences Involving Two Populations 10.3 Inference for Mean Difference Two Independent Samples Confidence Interval Procedure With and unknown, a 1-α confidence interval for is: df Confidence Interval for Mean Difference (Independent Samples) s 1 s s 1 s ( x1 x) t( df, / ) to ( x1 x) t( df, / ) n1 n n1 n where df is either calculated or smaller of df 1, or df (10.8) 1 1 Actually, this is for σ 1 σ.

36 Review Chapter 8 44

37 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.1 The Nature of Estimation Point estimate for a parameter: A single number, to estimate a parameter usually the.. sample statistic. i.e. x is a point estimate for μ Interval estimate: An interval bounded by two values and used to estimate the value of a population parameter.. i.e. x ( some amount) is an interval estimate for μ. point estimate some amount 45

38 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.1 The Nature of Estimation Significance Level: Probability parameter outside interval, α. P( not in x some amount) = Level of Confidence 1-α: P( x some amount < < x some amount) = 1 Confidence Interval: point estimator some amount that depends on confidence level 46

39 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8. Estimation of Mean μ (σ Known) Thus, a (1-α) 100% confidence interval for μ is σ x ± z( / ) n which if α=0.05, a 95% confidence interval for μ is x±1.96 σ z(.05))=1.96. n Confidence Interval for Mean: σ x z( / ) σ to x z( / ) (8.1) n n 47

40 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8. Estimation of Mean μ (σ Known) Sample Size Determination Recall that our Confidence Interval was σ which was say x ± z( / ). n Maximum Error of Estimate then we can rewrite as Sample Size E = z( / ) n= x some amount σ n z( / ) σ E (8.) (8.3) 48

41 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8. Estimation of Mean μ (σ Known) n= z( / ) σ E In this, z(α/) is known with specification of α. We can set an E and set σ (or get it from previous data) to obtain a minimum sample size n to achieve E. Used a lot in Biological applications to determine how many subjects and most IRBs require an estimate of n. 49

42 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.3 The Nature of Hypothesis Testing We call the proposed hypothesis the null hypothesis and the opposing hypothesis the alternative hypothesis. Null Hypothesis, H 0 : The hypothesis that we will test. Generally a statement that a parameter has a specific value. Alternative Hypothesis, H a : A statement about the same parameter that is used in the null hypothesis. parameter has a value different from the value in the null hypothesis. 50

43 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.4 The Nature of Hypothesis Testing Example 1: Friend s Party H 0 : The party will be a dud vs. H a : The Party will be a great time Four outcomes from a hypothesis test. We go. Party Great Correct Decision Party a dud. Type II Error If do not go to party and it s great, we made an error in judgment. We do not go. Type I Error Correct Decision If go to party and it s a dud, we made in error in judgment. 51

44 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.4 The Nature of Hypothesis Testing Example : Math 1700 Height H 0 : μ = 69 vs. H a : μ 69 Four outcomes from a hypothesis test. Fail to reject H 0. μ = 69 μ 69 Correct Decision Type II Error If we reject H 0 and it is true, we made in error in judgment. Reject H 0. Type I Error Correct Decision If we do not reject H 0 and it is false, we have made an error in judgment. 5

45 8: Introduction to Statistical Inference 8.4 The Nature of Hypothesis Testing Type I Error: true null hypothesis H 0 is rejected. Level of Significance (α): The probability of committing a type I error. (Sometimes α is called the false positive rate.) Type II Error: favor null hypothesis that is actually false. Type II Probability (β): The probability of committing a type II error. Do Not Reject H 0 Reject H 0 H 0 True Type A Correct Decision (1-α) Type I Error (α) H 0 False Type II Error (β) Type B Correct Decision (1-β) 53
