Chapter 4 Foundations for Inference (F)

Learning Outcomes

F: Can I perform the fundamental tasks of statistical inference?
- F1: I can identify point estimates for parameters of interest.
- F2: I can find a confidence interval for the true proportion of a categorical variable, given a sample, and interpret the meaning of this interval.
- F3: I can test hypothesis about the true proportion of a categorical variable, given a sample: stating the null and alternative hypothesis, computing a $p$-value, explaining the meaning of the $p$-value and drawing a conclusion.
