Sample text
Inferential statistics, on the other hand, deal with making an inference from the data at hand (the sample) to the overall population of objects from which the sample came. Thus we might use a sample of 50 students to estimate (infer) characteristics of all of the students in the university from which that sample was drawn, or even all college students or all people between the ages of 18 and 22. When we have a measure that is based on a sample, that measure is called a statistic. The corresponding measure for the whole population is referred to as a parameter.
In some cases we can focus on “meaningfulness” in just a sentence or two. In other cases it takes more work and more discussion. And to go one step further, in the last chapter of the book I will discuss meta-analysis. This refers to drawing conclusions from a whole set of similar experiments on a given phenomenon. Not only do we want to know if an effect is reliable and important, but we want to know if several different studies on the same phenomenon agree on what the effect is. This tells us a great deal more about some phenomenon than the results of one particular study.
All these assumptions seem reasonable, but they are assumptions nonetheless. When we consider the scale of measurement, Copyright 2013 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
