Mysteries of Life
We have questions Why do people behave that way? Is global warming occurring? Will my cancer come back?
To get answers, we need… Information Data Explanation analysis & interpretation ~

Theories & Statistical Models
Theories Describe, explain, & predict real-
world events/objects Models
Replicas of real-world events/objects
Can test predictions ~

Models & Fit Model not exact replica
Smaller, simulated Sample
Model of population Introduces error
Fit How well does model represent population? Amount of error in model Good fit more useful ~

Models in Psychology
My research model Domestic chicks Effects of pre-/postnatal drug use Addiction & its consequences
Who/What do most psychologists study? Rats, pigeons, intro. psych. students
External validity Good fit with real-world populations? ~

The General Linear Model Relationship b/n predictor & outcome
variables form straight line Correlation, regression, analysis of
variance Other more complex models ~

Populations & Samples
Population The whole group of interest parameter population mean =
Samples A portion of population statistic sample mean =~X

Populations & Samples
Research goals Learn about population Characteristics that widely apply Impossible/impractical to directly study
Research methods Study representative sample Introduce sampling error ~ X

Analyzing Data
Descriptive Statistics Quantitative descriptions of
characteristics Mean & standard error
Inferential Statistics Statistical tests Use sample descriptive statistics Draw conclusions about population
parameters ~

Hypothesis Testing
Hypotheses testable assumptions About groups
Same From same populations Null hypothesis
Different From different populations Alternative hypothesis ~

Logic of the Hypothesis Test Difference between groups
Caused by independent variable Difference between individuals
Due to individual differences Average difference between
individuals chosen randomly Chance/error (or natural variability) ~
![Page 14: The Logic of Statistical Analysis Lesson 2 Population APopulation B Sample 1Sample 2 OR](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022083007/56649e6b5503460f94b69cd0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Variability & Variance Characteristics are variable
People are different Variance
Numerical measure of variability Expected differences between
individuals Statistics
Help sift through natural variability Help determine if same or different ~

Logic of the Hypothesis Test Groups the same
Or too similar Difference between groups =
difference between individuals Test statistic ≤ 1
Groups different Difference between groups bigger than
difference between individuals Test statistic >> 1 ~

Rosenthal & Jacobsen (1968)
Inferential statistics Hypothesis testing
Reporting results Descriptive statistics for each group Summary of results of statistical test
Bloomers (M=16.5, SD=19.4) had a statistically significant greater increase in IQ scores than Non-bloomers (M=7.0, SD=10.1), t(57)=2.36, p=.022.
