Thread: Basic Statistics - Halp!

so i'm doing a introductory stats paper as part of my psychology course,
and...i suck at it.

got this big assignment due tomorrow and i thought it'd be worth a shot dipping into DV for some help.

the things i'm having trouble with are:

-Hypotheses Testing (z-test)
-Confidence Intervals for Differences between Population Means
-ANOVA (one way analysis of Variance)
-Confidence Intervals with ANOVA


any help would be greatly greatly greatly greatly appreciated.
even if it's just referral to a good stat calculator site or something.



(i have a Casio fx-9750G calculator)

thanks guys

I'm studying the exact same thing and a bit more.
3 hours of YouTube did more for me then 3 months for that course.
So feel free to look up YT, you have everything explained to the very last detail. I was amazed by how good the tutorials for mathematics, statistic and probability are.

Hopefully you've gotten somewhere with it. You have a big assignment due tomorrow and are posting this at night? You must start future assignments earlier.

I've taken 2 statistics courses, and although the things you've mentioned sound familiar and I know I've worked with them, I don't remember how to do them exactly. Do you not have notes or a textbook in which you can look these things up?

(Also, this should probably have been posted under the homework help section.)

this i know, i've just had four papers this semester and i've been working a lot.
i've been a bit swamped!
and i don't have the textbook
notes are okay, i had a good lecturer for the first half of the course but he got sick and now i have an average one.
but yeah, i'll get through it
