Confidence Intervals for Proportions
1-2 weeksConstruct and interpret CIs for proportions. Check Random, Large Counts, and 10% conditions.
Confidence Intervals for Means
1-2 weeksBuild CIs using the t-distribution when sigma is unknown.
Hypothesis Tests for Proportions and Means
2-3 weeksMaster the four-step process. Practice z-tests and t-tests.
Chi-Square Tests
1-2 weeksApply GOF and independence/homogeneity tests. Check expected count conditions.
Inference for Regression Slopes
1-2 weeksTest and build CIs for regression slopes using t=b/SEb with df=n-2.
Errors, Power, and Connecting Ideas
1-2 weeksUnderstand Type I/II errors, power, CI-test duality, and procedure selection.
