Confidence Interval [Simply explained]

In statistics, parameters of the population are often estimated based on a sample, e.g. the mean or the variance. But these are only estimates and the true value in the population will lie somewhere around these estimates. Now it is of course very useful to define a range or interval in which the true value will lie with a high probability, this range is called confidence interval.

    Honestly, I think they do this because some of them want to feel important. Einstein himself said, "If you can't explain (the subject) simply... then you don't know it well enough yourself..."

    Miss, I'm literally about to take exam on this material...😭😭 You explain this much better than my professor. Thank you very much for this, I now understand that the confidence level correlate directly with the Z-level which I can use to calculate the confidence interval. From the bottom of my heart, I sincerely thank you😭😭

    Could you explain the s/sqrt(n) part. I guess that std. Deviation equals the sqrt(variance divided by n). So why is there yet another division with n when you calculate the C.I.?

  • @datatab

    @datatab

    2 жыл бұрын

    If you divide by sqrt(n), you calculate the standard deviation of the mean (Also called standard error), that is, how much the mean varies. Without sqrt(n) you calculate how much the whole data varies. But we want to know in which range the mean fluctuates so wie use s/sqrt(n). Regards Hannah

  • @datatab

    @datatab

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi many thanks for your question! No, that is exactly the purpose of the confidence interval. For example, if you take the 95% confidence interval, it is 95% likely that the mean of the population lies within the confidence interval and 5% likely that it does not lie within the confidence interval. Since we do not know the true value, we can only estimate and give a probability.

    Calculate (integrate) the area under the curve of the standard normal distribution (mu=0, sigma=1) in such a way, that area is 0.95 from -inf to x. Since there is no explicit form of that integral people botherd to calculate it for "all" (aka 10'000) values between 0 and 1 so it can be printed to a book and looked up.
