Now I know where my students are getting inaccurate information from. The difference between z and t has nothing to do with the sample size. It has everything to do with whether or not you are using a known population standard deviation or whether you are estimating it by using the standard deviation calculated from the sample. IF YOU ARE USING A SAMPLE STANDARD DEVIATION TO CALCULATE THE STANDARD ERROR (estimate of standard deviation of the sampling distribution), THEN YOU USE A T-STATISTIC, REGARDLESS OF SAMPLE SIZE. Period. The reason for using t is to correct for the extra variability that is added when using an estimate from a sample rather than a known population parameter. Yes, as the sample sizes get large there is very little difference between the values of z and t, so a z table could be used as a good approximation. But we use computers now so the correct test to choose would be a t-test. (I know this has been taught incorrectly for years, but that is no reason to continue to do so.)

The thing is, with sample sizes over 30, the difference between z and t is not so large and won't matter for most cases. Still not an excuse for teaching it incorrectly. Ask your teacher WHY a t distribution is used. Best wishes on your exam.

I would like to clarify a few things: "sample distribution" = "sampling distribution of the sample means" = "distribution the mean". Check wikipedia. Thanks to the Central Limit Theorem we know it is normal. In the video we have two means. The one is the center is the mean of all means and the other is just a mean of one sample group. So this "sample distribution" has also a standard deviation that is calculated by the formula given by Khan. By assuming that the H0 is true, having parameters/statistics from you control group and treated group, you usually have everything to calculate the z score and draw a conclusion.

@TheQuietStormX No. I teach statistics and have a Ph.D. Many texts have this point incorrect. If you have sigma, then the test statistic (x-bar - mu)/(sigma/sqrt(n)) either follows a standard normal distribution (if the population is normally distributed), or is approximately normal if n is sufficiently large. The t arises because the test statistic has not one, but two random variables (x-bar and s). The added variability from s generates the fatter tails of the t distribution.

But, to answer your question, if the population is not normally distributed, but your sample size is large enough, then you are invoking the CLT, whether you are using a standard normal or a t.

It's pretty clear he meant to say "when n is small" since he is already talking about the n>30 rule. Also, it's a little weird to say, use t if you don't know sigma. The CLT is essentially telling us that we don't need to if our sample is large enough (unless you needed the answer to be* extremely* accurate).

@palui That's not what the CLT is saying. Some texts are incorrect on this point. If you use s, it introduces additional randomness in the test statistic. As n gets large, s targets sigma with less variability and a t approaches a z. But the 'n is large enough' rule is not referring to this point. It is referring to the distribution of the sample mean.

Sampling distribution of a parameter is the distribution of that parameter. Sample distribution applies to data, sampling distribution applies to parameters that you compute using the data. For instance, you can have a distribution of heights of students in your group. If you calculate the mean height of your group, and go on to take more samples and mesure the mean height in each sample and then construct a histogram of mean heights you will get to see a normal distribution of the sample means or sampling distribution of mean heights...

the standard deviation of the sampling distribution aka standard error is the 'spread' of the statistic of concern (usually the mean). the sample standard deviation is the spread of the individually observed values which the statistic is calculated from. the former is the latter divided by the square root of the sample size. an example - if you had a sample of billions of people, the standard error of the mean height would be tiny, because if you repeatedly selected a different sample of that size and averaged everyone's heights, you would not get a mean very different. However, the range of individual heights in your sample would probably vary greatly i.e. the sample standard deviation is large

If you know the standard deviation, then you would be overestimating needlessly. It is not about the sample size. (The "30" comes from the fact that as the sample size increases, the z and t distributions are almost the same [this can be seen from t and z tables. However, if the population is normally distributed, then a sample from that population is more likely to follow the normal distribution shape with a sample size less than 30, so there is no need to use the larger t value.)

No, you shouldn't use the t if you know sigma. The t is based on the fact that the denominator is random, not fixed. But your question is a good one, because what if your parent population was far from normal, you had a sample of size n=6 but you knew sigma. The sampling distribution for n=6 wouldn't be very normal so to use a z would be fatal. Using a t wouldn't be correct either because you know sigma. In this case a larger sample size would be the best way out.

Hmm, I'll try applying what I've learned. That should be warning enough that I'm not necessarily correct. Sigma isn't given, only Xbar. However, since the sample is large enough to be covered by the CLT (>30), then a z-distribution is still valid. I think.
@terencehann280911 жыл бұрын
I think there is some relationship between t and n. From the deviation of t-distribution by bayesian statistic, the assumption is that mu is conditionally normal with mean xbar. To make this hold, n>30 to apply CLT. And when n is large enough (n>100 maybe), t is very similar to z. As t is harder to calculate than z, usually when n>100 z will be used instead of z.

Wrong! The derivation of the SE of the mean is not a result of the CLT. It is the result of the sample being i.i.d. random variables, along with some basic math stats. The correct rules are: (1) if the population is not normal, then you need the sample size to be of sufficient size (general guidelines are >30) to invoke the CLT to state that the distribution of the sample mean follows a normal distribution. (2) If sigma is know, use z; if not, use t. It's not related to n.
