Kursbeskrivning

Hypothesis testing lets you answer questions about your datasets in a statistically rigorous way. In this course, you'll grow your Python analytical skills as you learn how and when to use common tests like t-tests, proportion tests, and chi-square tests. Working with real-world data, including Stack Overflow user feedback and supply-chain data for medical supply shipments, you'll gain a deep understanding of how these tests work and the key assumptions that underpin them. You'll also discover how non-parametric tests can be used to go beyond the limitations of traditional hypothesis tests.The videos contain live transcripts you can reveal by clicking "Show transcript" at the bottom left of the videos. The course glossary can be found on the right in the resources section. To obtain CPE credits you need to complete the course and reach a score of 70% on the qualified assessment. You can navigate to the assessment by clicking on the CPE credits callout on the right.

Sampling in Python

1

Hypothesis Testing Fundamentals

How does hypothesis testing work and what problems can it solve? To find out, you’ll walk through the workflow for a one sample proportion test. In doing so, you'll encounter important concepts like z-scores, p-values, and false negative and false positive errors.

Hypothesis tests and z-scores

Uses of A/B testing

Calculating the sample mean

Calculating a z-score

Criminal trials and hypothesis tests

Left tail, right tail, two tails

Calculating p-values

Statistical significance

Decisions from p-values

Calculating a confidence interval

Type I and type II errors

2

Two-Sample and ANOVA Tests

In this chapter, you’ll learn how to test for differences in means between two groups using t-tests and extend this to more than two groups using ANOVA and pairwise t-tests.

Performing t-tests

Hypothesis testing workflow

Two sample mean test statistic

Calculating p-values from t-statistics

Why is t needed?

The t-distribution

From t to p

Paired t-tests

Is pairing needed?

Visualizing the difference

Using ttest()

ANOVA tests

Visualizing many categories

Conducting an ANOVA test

Pairwise t-tests

3

Proportion Tests

Now it’s time to test for differences in proportions between two groups using proportion tests. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll extend your proportion tests to more than two groups with chi-square independence tests, and return to the one sample case with chi-square goodness of fit tests.

One-sample proportion tests

t for proportions?

Test for single proportions

Two-sample proportion tests

Test of two proportions

proportions_ztest() for two samples

Chi-square test of independence

The chi-square distribution

How many tails for chi-square tests?

Performing a chi-square test

Chi-square goodness of fit tests

Visualizing goodness of fit

Performing a goodness of fit test

4

Non-Parametric Tests

Finally, it’s time to learn about the assumptions made by parametric hypothesis tests, and see how non-parametric tests can be used when those assumptions aren't met.

Assumptions in hypothesis testing

Common assumptions of hypothesis tests

Testing sample size

Non-parametric tests

Which parametric test?

Wilcoxon signed-rank test

Non-parametric ANOVA and unpaired t-tests

Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney

Kruskal-Wallis
