Historical development
This standard replaces the old sampling standard with making an inference about a single population
Extends development of the curriculum material developed by Chris Wild and his team at Auckland University
Follows on from 91035 (1.10) Multivariate Data
![Page 4: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What is new/changed?
Use of exploratory data analysis. Statistical inference comparing two
populations (or two groups within one population).
Informal confidence intervals for population medians.
Sampling variability. Using relevant (given) contextual
knowledge.

Problem
What sort of question is this?
How would we have worded this question last year? (Level 1)
What other sort of investigative questions are there?
What makes a good question?
I wonder what the median weight of Stage 1 Statistics students at Auckland University is?
![Page 14: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Reminders…
Question types Good questions SUMMARY
Description of one variable
COMPARISON Comparing two (or
more) subsets of data across a common numeric variable
RELATIONSHIP Looking at the
interrelationship between two paired numeric variables
Can be answered with the data
Population of interest is clear
Variable(s) of interest is clear
Intent (summary, comparison, relationship) is clear
Someone is interested in the answer
![Page 15: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Comparative question progression – ASIDE from Pip ArnoldLevel 6 Level 7 I wonder if
heights of NZ Yr 11 boys tend to be greater than heights of NZ year 11 girls
looking for a tendency, do the boxes overlap or not, if they do is it too much
I wonder if the median height of NZ year 11 boys tends to be greater than the median height of NZ year 11 girls
seeing if the informal confidence interval overlap or not
Level 8 – under development still… I wonder what
the difference in heights is between NZ year 11 boys and NZ year 11 girls.
finding an interval for the difference – if zero in the interval then probably not making the call

I wonder what the median weight of Stage 1 Statistics students at Auckland University is?
What do you think the typical weight will be?
Why? Sketch the shape of the distribution
of weights of Stage 1 Statistics students from Auckland University.

Conclusion
From my sample data I estimate that the median weight for all Stage 1 statistics students at Auckland University is….
Use sample median to provide a point estimate of the population parameter
![Page 18: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Conclusion
But they’re all different! Who is right?
From my sample data I estimate that the median weight for all Stage 1 statistics students at Auckland University is….

Everyone’s plots
How can we use our sample to predict what is going on back in the population?
The sample median is our best idea of the population median
![Page 20: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Sampling error
The process of taking a sample and using the median of the sample to predict the population median will never produce the exact value of the population median.
This is called sampling error The difference between the sample
median and the true value back in the population

ConclusionAs the sample size increases, • the variation of the medians __________
What is a sensible and reliable sample size to use to make inferences about the population?
![Page 29: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Conclusion
Remember Our best point estimate of the
population parameter – the population median is our sample median The estimates vary, even with n = 100 It is better to provide a range of possible
values for the parameter, based on our estimate, rather than stating one value

Middle SchoolYear 7 – 10
An intermediate school wants to purchase new furniture for their students, based on the median height of students in years 7 and 8.
A teacher takes a sample of 30 intermediate students from C@S to make an estimate of the population median
A middle school wants to purchase new furniture for their students, based on the median height of middle school students.
A teacher takes a sample of 30 middle school students from C@S to make an estimate of the population median

Developing an informal confidence interval for the population median… For our informal confidence interval for
the population median we want to use Sample median Sample IQR/n
We need to see how big to make this interval so we’re pretty sure the interval includes the population median We want it to work about 90% of the time

From our 10 samples it would appear ±1.5 x IQR/sqrt(n) would be most effective.
That is… it should capture the population median most of the time

Conclusion - inference
From my informal confidence intervals, I am pretty sure that the population median height of NZ kiwi females is between ____ and ____.
Similarly, I’m pretty sure that the population median height of NZ kiwi males is between ____ and ____.
Teaching and learning world NOTE – Matt ReganIn the conclusion…We used "sure" rather than "confident" as we should reserve the use of the term 'confident' to ideas about the confidence we have in our interval estimate (i.e., our confidence interval) which is different from the confidence we have about the 'pattern repeatability' and we don't want students to get muddled.
![Page 77: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Conclusion
Based on these samples I would make the call that the population median height of NZ kiwi females is greater then the population median height of NZ kiwi males. That is, I would make the call that NZ kiwi females tend to be taller than NZ kiwi males back in the two populations.
![Page 78: Use statistical methods to make an inference. Michelle Dalrymple.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012919/5a4d1b697f8b9ab0599b252d/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Conclusion - justification The informal confidence interval for the
population median height of NZ kiwi females is (much) further up the scale than the informal confidence interval for the population median height of NZ kiwi males and these informal confidence intervals do not overlap.
I am quite sure that if I were to take another sample of NZ kiwi females and another sample of NZ kiwi males girls this non-overlapping pattern in confidence intervals for the population medians would persist, thus giving the same conclusion.

Conclusion
Further thoughts… What would happen if you took
another sample and completed this process again?
What would happen if to the informal confidence intervals if you increased the sample size?
