6B Paper discussion
Republic of Maldives
Based on AS &A2 practical experiments Be thorough in doing these practical's , procedure, precautionary methods
Q2.
Statistical test 5 tests for calculating mean , median, mode & differences
Q3.
Null Hypothesis There is no significant relationship between the independent and dependent variable If calculated value, at p = 0.05 , 5% significance level, is greater than critical value , REJECT Ho Degree of freedom = n-1 , n= no of measurements

T-TEST
Null Hypothesis : There is no significance difference between the mean value of set one and set two
If calculated value > Critical value ,at p =0.05 (5%) REJECT Ho Degree of freedom = n-2
Median
Factor/ unit
to determine if the difference between two sets of data measuring the same variable must be matched in pairs
Data
Single
Eg
, pulse rate before & after exercise Usually bar graphs , with bars in pairs
CHI 2 TEST
Used
to measure goodness of fit Used to test whether the difference between the observed values are significantly different from the expected value Usually bar graph in pairs Eg A rat is placed in such a cage
probability of rat chosing the open door Exp ratio : N S E W 1 :1 :1:1 Obser ratio 9:11:8:12
After doing the chi2 test If calculated value > Critical value ,at p =0.05 (5%) REJECT Ho Conclusion : There is a significant difference between the observed and the expected value
If calculated value < Critical value ,at p =0.05 (5%) ACCEPT Ho Conclusion : There is no significant difference between the observed and the expected value, any difference is due to chance alone
