Example for One Sample t Test (Two Sides)

October 24th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

A manufacturer of a product filling machine beverage bottles, claims that the average machine-made filling beverage bottles of 100 ml per bottle. To assure this, the company that bought the machine re-tested by measuring the contents of the bottle that has been filled by the machine. The results obtained from measurements of the sample are as follows:

101, 99, 104, 103, 102, 100, 98, 101, 101, 100, 99, 97, 98, 100, 105, 101, 103, 104, 96, 97

Level of confidence (1-\alpha) used in testing is 95%.

Solution:

From the data can be obtained:
= 100 (average claimed by the engine company)
= 100,45 (average sample measurement results)
s = 1,627998 (standard deviation of the sample)
n = 20 (number of the sample)
v = 19 (degrees of freedom= n-1)
\alpha = 0,05 (level of significance)

Hypothesis:

Statistical Test:


t = 1,236

Decision Making:
With level of significance (\alpha) 0,05 then \alpha)/2 is 0,025 and degrees of freedom v = 19, so from t distribution table obtained -t_{\alpha /2,v} dan t_{\alpha /2,v} are -2,093 and 2,093. If compared with the t count, then t count is between those numbers, so that Ho received. Therefore, a decision that can be taken with 95% confidence level, test results are not significantly different from what was claimed by the manufacturer of bottle filling machine.

One sample t test (Two Sides)

October 23rd, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

One sample t test (two sided) was used to determine whether the average value of a sample of the same or significantly different with a value comparison. T test is used if the number of sample data under 30.

Hypothesis:

H_{o}:\mu =\mu _{o}

H_{1}:\mu \neq \mu _{o}

Statistic Test:
t = \frac{\overline{x}-\mu _{o}}{s/\sqrt{n}}

Decision Making:
Decision making is based on a comparison of t count and t tables. If t count exceeds than t_{\alpha /2,v}  or less than -t_{\alpha /2,v}  then Ho is rejected. Whereas if t count is between -t_{\alpha /2,v}  and t_{\alpha /2,v}  the Ho accepted.

Note:

  • \alpha  is the significance level obtained from figure 1 minus the confidence level. Usually the level of trust that is often used is 95%, so the significance level (\alpha ) = 1-95% = 5% or 0.05.
  • v is the degrees of freedom, which is obtained from the number of data samples (n) minus 1.
  • From values \alpha  ??and degrees of freedom (v) t values ??can be obtained tables that can be seen in the t distribution table.

t-Student Distribution Statistics Table

Suppose the degrees of freedom is v, where v = n-1, and with a significant degree is . Then the area under the curve of distribution is like the table below.

The table below is used only if n is smaller or equal to 30. If n is greater than 30 then the distribution table used is the normal distribution table (z table).

Download Software SPSS Version 19 on Mediafire

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

Idly while I download the data entry SPSS software. Wow,,, apparently the latest version of SPSS is SPSS version 19. Earlier last version that I know and I often use is SPSS version 15. When I made the first thesis, for the processing of my data using SPSS version 13. Meanwhile, when first learning SPSS, I used SPSS version 7. It seems like every year is always released the newest version of SPSS. There may also be coming out two versions in a single year. Because I’ve used SPSS version 11.5.

SPSS is a statistical data processing software. SPSS is the original price is very expensive, far many times more expensive than the price of Windows 7. For students who want to process the data to complete the task and ultimately respect the copyrights of others, better use of Sofa Staistics software because this software is free. The software can be downloaded at sofastatistics.com.

Statistical software which I use only SPSS and I not that familiar with the software Sofa Statistics. So from that which I want to download the SPSS software as well. And because I do not want to buy the expensive SPSS software (for lack of money), then I am forced to just download SPSS software along with its crack. For those who want to, ya I love the link.

Using of Statistical Methods

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

There are two statistical methods, namely descriptive statistics and inductive statistics. Descriptive statistics describe the characteristics of data, such as average, median, mode, deviation, and various other data characteristics. Descriptive statistics also explain the data in graphical form to make the data more easily understood by data users. While an inductive statistical methods to draw inferences about the population. Inductive form of statistical estimation, hypothesis testing, forecasting and others.

In a report such as thesis research, thesis or other containing statistical data, analysis on the results of these studies can not be separated from the descriptive statistical methods. In it there will be tables, graphs, and other numbers that provides an explanation about the characteristics of research data. Furthermore, if there is an assessment, testing or forecasting in the study then it will be there also statistical analysis using an inductive method.

If more attention then the contents of the research report presented the first statistical method is a statistical method dekriptif then proceed with inductive statistics. Both were consistent in explaining the research report.

So obviously if you want to make statements such as thesis research and thesis we will not be separated from the two statistical methods mentioned above. From the beginning of creation thesis or theses should we have to imagine how the presentation of descriptive statistics and statistical methods of inductive what to use.

SPSS and PASW Stands

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

I just found out SPSS and PASW are the same. Since last I am using SPSS (Version 15) was SPSS has undergone many changes. On July 28, 2009, SPSS acquired by IBM for U.S. $ 1.2 billion. Since then SPSS  renamed PASW (Predictive Analytics Software) with the first version of PASW Statistics 18. In version 19, the name was changed back into the SPSS Version 19.

Although the name back to the beginning, it stands for change. Extension of the previous SPSS is Statistical Package for the Social Sciens. Then on 19 versions of this, an extension of SPSS is Statistical Product and Service Solutions. This change is intended for the use of SPSS is no longer for solving problems of social statistical data processing only. But SPSS is capable of solving the problems of economic statistical data processing and statistics in other fields.

Data Entry: One Step in the Statistical Process

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

Nearly a month has been our doing data entry. Because so much data that must dientry, almost exhausted my spirit to do this activity. When the activity is nearly finished my spirit arise again. To maintain this spirit, I try to interpret some data entry activities so that I do not consider this activity a futile activity.

Data entry is part of the statistical process. Data entry is to move the data contained in the questionnaire into the computer. Other terms are simplifying the raw data by changing existing data in the questionnaire (hardcopy) to the data in the form of computer files (softcopy).

With the transfer of data from the questionnaires into the computer processing and data analysis will be faster. Data analysis can be done easily through statistical software such as SPSS, Minitab, SAS or other statistical software.

Regression Model Assumptions are Not Fulfilled

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

To obtain a good regression model then some assumptions must be met. These assumptions are normality, multicollinearity, autocorrelation, and  homoskedastisitas. With the assumptions are met, then the regression model is used both for forecasting and forecasting errors in the small.

Today I tried to process all the data I have to create regression models. To obtain a good regression test then I regression model assumptions. After my test, it turns out all of the data is no assumption is fulfilled in its entirety. I often found was that one assumption is not fulfilled, while other assumptions are met. The assumption is rarely fulfilled multicollinearity assumption.

Solution for Data are not Normally Distributed

October 17th, 2011 by rory | No Comments | Filed in Statistics

The data are normally distributed or nearly normal is mandatory requirement to conduct parametric statistical analysis. Usually on the number of sampled data bit (under 30) are often not normally distributed so that parametric statistical analysis could not be done. Solution if you want to continue the analysis of these data is to use nonparametric statistical analysis.

Because more powerfull than parametric statistics nonparametric statistics then we should do the addition of the sample so that the data distribution can approach normality and parametric statistical analysis could be done. Data are the number of samples already in the hundreds or thousands of usually can be considered normal, so we no longer have to test normality.

Sometimes certain conditions the addition of the sample can not be done. This can be because if you create a new sample then it will take a considerable cost. It could also be due to the timing condition on additional samples is no longer appropriate to the conditions at the time of sample collection before.

If the situation so, then another solution is to transform the data into another form. For example the form of log x, ln x or 1/x, then the data is transformed kenormalannya tested again. If it turns out the data transformation results are still not normally distributed as well, then do the analysis with nonparametric statistics is the best solution.
