1 STUDENT S t-distribution AND CONFIDENCE INTERVALS OF THE MEAN Suppoe that we have a ample of meaured value x1, x, x3,, x of a igle uow quatity. Aumig that the meauremet are draw from a ormal ditributio havig mea µ ad variace µσ, with the arithmetic mea σ it i reaoable to etimate thee populatio parameter ( ) ad the ample variace x = = 1 x (1) = = 1 ( x x ) 1 where tadard deviatio, σ (ample ad populatio repectively) are poitive quare-root of variace, σ. If the ample ize i large ( 30) we may etimate cofidece iterval for the mea µ uig the tatitic z, where x µ x µ x µ z = = σ σ ad z i aumed to be a value of the tadard ormal variable Z. Here we are uig a theorem of tatitical amplig theory: If all poible radom ample X1, X,, X of ize are draw with replacemet from a ormal populatio with mea µ ad tadard deviatio σ, the the amplig ditributio of the mea X will be approximately ormally ditributed with mea µ = µ ad tadard deviatio σ = σ. X X X µ X µ X µ It follow that Z = = = ha a tadard ormal ditributio. σ σ σ X Note that i equatio (3) σ (which may be uow) ca be replaced by ; which i a reaoable aumptio for 30. Cofidece iterval (CI) ca be determied from the followig probability tatemet ( ) α α 1 α P z < Z < z = (4) where P ( ) i probability, α i a igificace level ad z α the tadard ormal ditributio. For a 95% CI ( ) from table of the tadard ormal ditributio z α = () (3), z α are two tail-ed value of α = 0.05, 1 α = 0.95, α = 0.05 ad 1

Thi i a reaoable aumptio for 30. α α σ σ (7)
3 If the ample ize i mall ( < 30) we may etimate cofidece iterval for the mea µ uig the tatitic t where x µ x µ t = = ad t i aumed to be a value of the radom variable T havig a Studet t ditributio with = 1 degree of freedom. The t ditributio wa itroduced by W.S. Goet who publihed uder the peudoym Studet (1908). Studet t ditributio (or jut the t ditributio) i the ditributio of the radom variable T ( x µ ) ( ) = of mall ample whoe variace may fluctuate coiderably. The t ditributio i the familiar bell-haped curve ad it ca be how that the ormal ditributio i the limitig cae of the t ditributio.

A icreae the t ditributio approache the ormal ditributio. Cofidece iterval (CI) ca be determied from the followig probability tatemet where ( ) ( ) P t < T < t = (9) α, α, 1 α P i probability, α i a igificace level ad t α,, t α, are two tail-ed value of the t ditributio with v degree of freedom. = degree of freedom, ( ) For a 95% CI with 3 α = 0.05, 1 α = 0.95, α = 0.05 ad from table of the t ditributio for = 3 degree of freedom, t α, =

Subtitutig the tatitic t i equatio (8) for the radom variable T i equatio (9) give x µ P tα, < < tα, = 1 α ad the iequality o the left-had-ide may be re-arraged to give P x tα, < µ < x + tα, = 1 α Thu the lower ad upper cofidece limit the mea µ are: lower cofidece limit upper cofidece limit = x t = x + t α, α, For a 95% CI ad v = 3 degree of freedom thee limit are x ± (10) (11) Example 1 A ditace i meaured four time givig the followig value. What are the 95% cofidece limit of the mea?
