  1. T-Test Faisal Aziz

  2. T-Test • William S. Gosset discovered T-distribution in 1906 • T-distribution is similar to normal distribution • Used when sample size <30.

  3. T-Test • To compare means • Numerical Data • Comparing the Mean of two groups • Also referred as student t-test

  4. Degrees of Freedom Minimum number of information required to estimate the population variance One sample • n-1 Two sample • n1+n2-2

  5. 1) Determine the type of hypothesis Right sided Steps of T-Test

  6. Steps of T-Test 1) Determine the type of hypothesis • Left sided

  7. Steps of T-Test 1) Determine the type of hypothesis • Two sided

  8. Steps of T-Test 2) Determine level of significance • Level of Significance= α

  9. Steps of T-Test 3) Apply T-Test • Compute t- calculated (Formula) by choosing best statistical test • Compute t- tabulated…… (T- Table)

  10. T-table

  11. 4) Make an inference….. Reject H0 if t cal >t α/2 Reject H0 if t cal < -t α /2 Reject H0 if t cal >t α Reject H0 if t cal < -t α Steps of T-Test

  12. Steps of T-Test 5) Conclusion • Accept or reject H0

  13. One sample T-test ???

  14. One sample T-test To compare population mean with sample mean

  15. One sample T-Test df = n-1

  16. Example • The average Hb level of normal woman is 13. The doctor at clinic A feels that the pregnant women coming at clinic are mostly anemic. She takes a random sample of 25 pregnant women and looks at their Hb. The data is given below • Sample mean X=11.8 • Sample SD s=2.6 • Sample size n=25 • Level of significance α = 0.05 Hypothesis ???

  17. Example • 1) H0= µ>13 Ha= µ<13 • 2) α = 0.05 • 3) t cal= -2.32 T tabulated(0.05’24)= -1.711

  18. Example 4) Reject H0 if t cal < -t tab • Hence t cal < -1.711 5) Conclusion • Therefore we reject H0 at 5% significance level. • Average Hb of pregnant women at clinic A is less than that of normal women

  19. Two Independent Samples t-test

  20. Two Independent Samples t-test • For comparison of two means • To compare one group with other

  21. Example

  22. Example Null Hypothesis (Ho): H1 = H2 Alternative hypothesis (Ha): H1 = H2 α = 0.05

  23. t cal= 2/0.56=3.6

  24. T- tabulated • α = 0.05 • D.F= n1+n2-2 60+52-2= 110 • Look into T- Table • T tabulated= 1.98

  25. Inference • T calculated=3.6 > t tabulated=1.98 Conclusion ???

  26. How to do ‘Independent Sample t-test’ by SPSS

  27. Independent sample t-test to compare mean age of males and females

  28. Contd… What’s your interpretation?

  29. Independent sample t-test comparing mean weight of males and females

  30. Contd.. What’s your interpretation?

  31. Thank You
