This makes much more sense now, thank you!

You're welcome 😊

Thank you this video was very informative!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you

amazing summary of stats skills in bio

thank you, it was useful 😃

😁😁 glad it helped

So useful! Thank you!!

[@MissEstruchBiology]

Thanks for the comment :) Glad you found it helpful.

if spearmans rank of correlaiton coefficient measures associaiton rather than correlaiton between two variables, why write null hypotheis with correlation, shoudlnt it be association, that's what we do in maths a level!

Hi, Unfortunately I can't reach your notes. Could u kindly send the link you mentioned in the video?

[@MissEstruchBiology]

Hey, they are at missestruch.co.uk

Is it the Pearson's or Spearman's version needed as they have different ways to find the degrees of freedom. Are students expected to calculate the degrees of freedom for the coefficient correlation as in the Collins textbook it is not explained at all. Thanks

[@MissEstruchBiology]

For AQA df is just number of pairs for spearmans

[@rachelparsons9751]

Thank you!

[@angelstar7775]

in the exam would we be expected to use equation

[@MissEstruchBiology]

Hello,
No, you wouldn't be asked to calculate the statistic, just to analyse and conclude what it shows you.

thanks, also great for Marine science :)

Hi miss Estruch, which statistical tests will be on AQA biology paper 1?

[@MissEstruchBiology]

Hello
any of the 3 could come up on any paper ( correlation coefficient, t test or chi squared)

[@elijah2859]

@@MissEstruchBiology oh okayy thanks x

[@Samantha2431___]

do we need to know the difference between pearsons and spearmans for aqa ?

[@MissEstruchBiology]

No, as you don't have to do the calculation in the exam
