I really don't know how to calculate a p value. I am being taught to use the degrees of freedom and a cut off score to the determine the critical t values and use t statistics to determine whether or not to reject the null hypothesis. but my teacher still asks us for a p value with no graphing calculators or ways to solve for it. I'm so confused

10: 00 I am not a fan of that argument. Why does a p-value of 0. 0108 constitute as no evidence and 0. 0992 as enough evidence, even though both values are basically the same? Alpha levels are arbitrary. I would argue, that a certain p--value suggest a certain weight (no/little/some/strong) of evidence in favour of rejecting the NULL.

At 9: 57, you used the t-statistic formula with the standard error in the denominator. You used an alternative version of the SE formula since you are comparing two groups. Why is there a -1- in the numerators of the fractions? Why did you use -1- for the standard deviation?

But IQs are an ugly fake evil hypothesis.
Isn't IQ just a bunch of racist facts?
(for the record, IQ isn't what you know - or even what you prefer; its your ability, aptitude, not drive. It's almost like saying that we evolved thumbs so we could use pens)

-2: 45 I think there-s a simple word error- you say you expect each observation to be one sd (15) from the mean, the word should be -within- rather than -from-. The mean is the expected because it is the value that decreases the summed square of residuals.

There is no defnitive way to determine if something is truly random or not random, even if you are 99. 9999% sure, you can only say that given your information, this option is more certain than another

wow. really useful info and so much. but i think i would be able to absorb this information much better if the video was slightly longer and had pauses in the dialogue rather than a constant stream of info.

Why has this series repeatedly used IQ as a measurement for examples? Surely a responsible educator should explain how seriously limited and potentially biased such information is? DFTBAQ

let the researcher decide if they can defend the cut off. at a minimum. idk, this feels like a step backwards from bayes. it does need to be covered, i get that.

Hi, at 6: 01 won't the standard variation formula be 1/(600+400) rather than 1/600 + 1/400. If latter is the case can someone please explain how? Thanks.
