  • Statistics 101: Calculating Type II Error - Part 1
    Part 1: Conceptual Background with Example
    Part 2: Curve Animation and Test Power
    In Part 1 of this video, we learn how to find the level of Type II error in a single sample hypothesis test. Type I error is easy...we chose it. However, Type II error is elusive. We examine the distribution differences graphically and then use an example problem to determine various levels of Type II error. Finally, we discuss hypothesis interpretations given certain sample mean locations. Enjoy!

    This is how every teacher/professor needs to teach. Introduce something with a conceptual back ground (the purpose behind the topic) and then go into examples. Too many times they try to teach by example. Thank you for these wonderful videos!

    Again, Brandon a superb presentation on the type II error. You made it also perfectly clear in previous presentations that a type I error (alpha) often is a nuisance (fire alarm example and toyota car example) whereas a type II error (beta) can be catastrophic. Why is it in power calculations that one is permissive for type II (beta) errors (10-20 %) and rigorous for type I (alpha) errors (1-5%). Why not the opposite ?

    Thank you for these videos. As a much older person back in school, when instructors assume the math and don't show it, I get lost. I'd like to see every part of each equation, please. In addition, when you go to a chart and get a number (which is probably assumed by all the younger students) please let me know that you have done that because I get lost there as well. Thanks so much. Your encouraging words prior to the video helped me. xo

    Hi Brandon! I have watched playlist 9 completely and one thing is unclear to me from fully understanding this PL. When do i know that i am making a type I or II error? At 19:30 in this video there is A, B, C & D. but how do I know where these values belong at µ0 or µa? (If they weren't in the graph but in a list like "A=2.5, B=3.8, C=3.4 & D=4.2") . Maybe it is a stupid question and I have missed something but I don’t grasp this part :(.

    Thank you so much for the video. However, if you don't mind, I would like to ask Mr. Foltz (or anyone who's kind enough) the following question:
    At approximately 9.25 min, you explain that to find the type II error, the population mean of the alternative hypothesis has to be greater than 3 (e.g. 3.5, 3.7, 4 etc.). This is the part where I find weird. Why do we have the freedom to choose the population mean of the alternative hypothesis in the first place? If we have that freedom, then the values of possible type II errors seem to be infinitely many. Then, how is finding the type II error be practical or useful?

  • @shubhambasu642
    @shubhambasu642 9 років тому +1

    You didn't considered the Zcritical value for the U=4, hence only the area between z=-2.33 and -1 should give the probability for type 2 error, which should come 0.15 or 15%. Since the area below that falls below the significance level for U=4, considering it should still support null hypothesis. In other words, only considering sample mean between 3.301 and 3.699 can lead to acceptance of null hypothesis when it should have been rejected leading to type 2 error. Please correct me if I am wrong !

    • @nicholasng2115
      @nicholasng2115 4 роки тому +1

      (If this is incorrect, please correct me!)1.666 IS the value for z when using the sample mean of 3.5. I think the confusion is that, for what Brandon is demonstrating here, that test statistic and calculation is almost redundant. The case where z = 2.33 comes from when we set the area on the right tail as 0.01 (check the standard normal distribution tables). The fact that our test statistic value = 1.6666 < 2.33 = critical z, then we don't reject H0 which is consistent with Brandon's conclusion of "we only reject H0 when x-bar >= 3.699" as x-bar is 3.5. Hope that helps somewhat?
