Statistics 101: Introduction to Hypothesis Formulation

Statistics 101: Introduction to Hypothesis Formulation.
In this video, we discuss the very basics of statistical hypothesis formulation. Think of this video as a way to think about and approach statistical tests. There is no one way to approach a hypothesis test; it depends on the point of view of the problem and researcher. Finally, we begin to discuss the null and alternative hypotheses in preparation for future videos. Enjoy!

Education on KZbin is actually a revolution

[@Phyto.]

100%, I am passing university courses due to it, it's incredible.

[@sansin-dev]

@@Phyto. Its called KZbin University for a reason

[@vikranttyagiRN]

I am living and breathing education because of KZbin. College sucks big time

[@rossgai8630]

you are right. i didn't realize that

[@donibrasco1984]

Teaching perhaps is an art. And i never seen anyone be so good at it. Thank you so much.

[@BrandonFoltz]

Thank you so much my friend. Knowing it helps is all the thanks I need. Hang in there and keep on learning!

[@Anastasia_Beaverhausen]

For real!

[@BrandonFoltz]

Thank so much! :) I appreciate your kind words...but the high fives go to YOU. Awesome job my friend. You did it. You found the way. I just turned up the lights a bit. Treat yourself to something nice. :P All the best, B.

[@aleksandarkaraivanov4934]

Men you are golden! I scored 92% on my exam and I have to thank much more to you than my paid tutor! You should be very proud with this great work you are doing!

[@BrandonFoltz]

Aleksandar Karaivanov Thank you very much! I am proud of the videos, but I am even more proud of viewers like you who do so well. :) Keep on learning!

[@logicdean1735]

***** I am so glad that people like you exist. You're an absolutely remarkable human being.

[@shabanshneta5457]

I've seen a lot of tutorials of all kind, from Mathematics, Programming, Physics... . I've never seen a professor (including the guys from MIT) explain things so clearly. It's obvious just from looking at those slides that you have put a lot of effort into your videos. Thank you very much mr. Foltz. :)

[@chakkapark]

My parents dont even believe in me, so nice to know that there is someone out there that still believes

[@canernm]

I also believe in you ! You can do it !! :)

[@Anastasia_Beaverhausen]

I believe in you!

[@NANCYPAULPOULOSE]

Same with my parents! :(

[@fabooshka]

Ey brother keep it going

[@sunilgovindan100]

Mr.Brandon, your videos are potential life savers. Anyone who is in real need of an introductory level of knowledge, your videos are just the pills they need. I'm a post graduate analytics student and you are already popular among my batch mates. Many of them watch your videos to begin with and then continue with our course materials. Please continue the excellent work you are doing by helping millions of students and knowledge seekers out there. Kudos !!

[@orbinroad]

I cannot thank you enough for your videos! I'm in an online statistics class and wasn't having any trouble until I reached hypothesis testing. Your videos helped me understand the big picture for that material and I got a 99 on my test! High fives to you!

[@elenayee3093]

I'm taking a quantitative class for my grad program and your presentations make my learning SO much easier. I shared your channel with classmates and hope they take advantage of your excellent videos.

[@dhelevationconsulting4174]

Brandon....I don't know which I appreciate more: your encouraging and affirming words at the beginning and end of your videos or the clear and straight forward way you explain stats. I am a doctoral student who has hit the stats wall hard... but you have helped bring the bricks down! Please do not stop creating and posting these wonderfully effective videos!! Blessings to you!

[@hibaalmayahi7095]

Well,generally I am open minded. But here I cant understand why would any human mind dislike such a video!

[@shivamwagh22]

I had almost given up on passing my Stats course for this semester. Thank you for those words of encouragement and your way of teaching is phenomenal! I am gonna try my best!

[@laurafarkas2007]

Your videos are the only reason I am passing statistics with a decent grade. You actually teach the material. Thank you so much!

[@sarahnicolegutierrez790]

15 seconds into the video and im already learning. It's really important to believe in your students when you're teaching. 🥰

[@niagaracanadagooners2111]

ur a lifesaver... I Thank God that I found a tutor like you who makes stats easy for a Master's student like me who has no idea of stats... I have my exam in Quantitative Analysis, and this is great...

[@ankursharma7812]

There is not a single person I have seen like Brandon with such s susceptible and easy to go videos. Thank you Brandon

[@sandipsarkar4555]

I'm really so grateful having come across these videos, they really made my concepts crystal clear !!!! Thanks a ton Mr Brandon

[@ericknutson8856]

Hi Brandon- Thanks for all the free content you create. I'm working on becoming a data scientist and your stats playlists have been a great help to me. You are so kind and your videos are nice and simple. I've shared your channel with my class mates in my Master's of Data Science program at University of Wisconsin. Thanks!

[@GinaBermudo]

Thank you, Mr. Foltz. You make statistics fun with your simple, clear and direct to the point explanations.

[@BrandonFoltz]

Oh thank you so so much Nick! I am so glad you find them helpful. Many students struggle with stats so I just try to do what I can to help. And yes concrete examples are the best! :) But the truly awesome people are those like yourself that have committed to learning and improving. Thanks again and all the best! - B

[@pawananand9095]

There can not be a better explanation of this topic. Thank you Brandon

[@whiteorchid1957]

Thanks for starting off the session with a pep talk! I like your conversational style and the pace of the session. The slides are visually appealing and examples are relatable and appropriate for this class level.

[@sasithrennathan795]

I am from Malaysia. Your video explains it easily! Great Job for helping out others for free. Not many are like you.

[@shaniceshipp8677]

excellent. Great lecture for online courses. Learning this Fall 2019.

[@jyotsanadhawan]

The explanation in this video makes the formulation of Hypothesis testing so much clear.

[@dawn123ish]

Okay, this is your calling. I bow to the master teacher. Keep up the good work!!

[@SF-rl7hl]

Brandon you have a special quality for teaching and remaining positive, Excellent! You are doing what you were meant to do, thank you!

[@patriciabell1379]

This was so extremely helpful! Thank you for going step by step. I actually, for the first time was able to understand, after months of trying. Thank you!

[@raquelocasio8002]

I'm having to use a textbook that completely skips defining the null or alternative hypothesis. I'm definitely going to share this with fellow students. Thanks for the video!

[@Azuremastery]

Thank you Brandon. I like your teaching methodology by revolving around an example problem. That actually helps to understand concepts much better. May God bless you for your valuable time and efforts

[@kewtomrao]

That intro is pure gem!!Helped me to walk the rough path!!Thanks sir!!

I have always loved your videos. Whenever I have to work on some analysis at work and I feel I have to go through the topics again I refer your channel. In simple beautiful manner you have explained statistics! :) I really wish if you could upload similar videos on Marketing analytics if possible.. Looking out a bit more clarity into customer segmentation and all of that.. Anyhow love your tutorial videos! Thank you so much!

[@jpmap]

@brandon flotz - thanks for the great video :) and also let me say thank you for the encouragement you have as an introduction of this vid, I'm a kind of student who doesn't like dealing with numbers but those words really brighten my hopes up, hope to learn more from the other videos :) thanks

[@adityasatyam6300]

If all youtube faculties come on a common platform and create a university / college , millions of excellent graduates would come out every year of that institutue . Thanks for such explanation .

[@alezmathew]

Awesome Videos. I have started learning alot from your videos .

[@lensclicks8727]

Easy to understand, great explanation, thanks:)

superb explanation Sir,You have explained in an excellent manner

[@bkyilmaz1705]

what a great explanation. thank you for effort

[@benjamcg]

The intro to this video has strong Dashboard Confessional vibes. And then it goes to an inspirational speech. I hypothesize that Brandon Foltz has owned a Relient K album.

[@ahmetcihan8025]

Thank you my friend for the motivation speech you are the best thanks again and again.

[@qiqisama4114]

This really helps me for my statistics course

[@BrandonFoltz]

HI Sharon! Thank you so much. The videos are all organized in playlists on my channel homepage. If you go to my channel look for "Playlists" in the upper left. Everything is organized right there. KZbin does NOT do a great job of highlighting them when you are watching a video. Let me know if you have problems finding it. All the very best! - B

[@karend8795]

Great videos, your quotes are also wonderful.

[@sharonayouabian6922]
