T Critical Value

The value from the t-distribution that is associated with a specified level of significance for a two-tailed test.

Confidence Levels

Confidence levels are the degree of certainty or probability—expressed as a percentage—that a confidence interval contains the true parameter value.

Alternative Hypothesis

The hypothesis in a statistical test that proposes a specific difference or effect, in contrast to the null hypothesis which suggests no effect.

  • Employ the idea of degrees of freedom for t-distribution computation.
  • Identify critical values and establish rejection regions during hypothesis testing leveraging the t-distribution.
