Key Concepts

Inferential Statistics

Inferential statistics is a branch of statistics that makes inferences and predictions about a population based on a sample of data. It involves the use of probability theory to estimate properties of an overall population and to test hypotheses about relationships among variables.

Frequency Distribution

A frequency distribution is a summary of how often each value in a set of data occurs. It provides a structured overview of the data by showing the number of observations within different categories or intervals, offering insight into the distribution pattern of the data.

Goodness-of-Fit Test

A goodness-of-fit test is a statistical procedure used to assess whether the observed frequency distribution of a dataset matches an expected distribution under a specific hypothesis. It helps determine if any discrepancies between observed and expected frequencies are due to chance or suggest a significant deviation.

Chi-Square Test

The chi-square test is a specific type of goodness-of-fit test that utilizes the chi-square statistic to evaluate deviations between observed and expected frequencies. It is widely used in categorical data analysis to test hypotheses about the distribution patterns of data.
