Correlation does not imply causation, kids.
•Writing a regression equation from computer output
•Making a prediction
•Calculating a residual
•Determining when model over- or under- estimates a data point
•Reading a residual plot
Below is a practice quiz with answers and explanations. [The only thing missing is sketches of the normal distribution.]
The actual quiz will be on Thursday 10/10
Where to find notes and examples in the textbook:
Any Distribution
•Standardizing and unstandardizing scores (page 86)
Normal distributions
•Find the percentage when you know the z-score (page 84)
•Find the z-score when you know the percentage (page 85)
•Standardizing scores (page 86)
•Interpreting z-scores (page 87)

mean = AVERAGE(cell range)
standard deviation = STDEV(cell range)
minimum =MIN(cell range)
first quartile =QUARTILE.INC(cell range, 1)
median =QUARTILE.INC(cell range, 2)
third quartile =QUARTILE.INC(cell range, 3)
maximum =MAX(cell range)
Quiz Next Tuesday (9/17)
•Know what sample, statistic, population, and parameter mean, and how to identify them in context
•Know what counts (and does not count) as a random process
•Know the definition of bias
•Be able to identify if a method is biased or unbiased from a sampling distribution
•Know what size, voluntary response, convenience, undercoverage, nonresponse, and questionnaire bias are, and be able to identify them in context.
•Know what a simple random sample is, and how you could design one to select a sample
