The course objective is to allow the student to organize, summarize, interpret, and present data using graphical and tabular representations; and apply principles of inferential statistics. Topics include methods of sampling; concepts of probability; probability distributions; normal, t-, and chi-square distributions; confidence intervals; hypothesis testing; correlation and regression. Focus is on selecting and applying appropriate statistical tests, determining reasonable inferences, and predictions from a set of data. Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to distinguish among sampling methods for the collection of data in order to assess the validity of statistical conclusions; organize, summarize, interpret, and present data using graphical and tabular representations; apply basic concepts of probability in order to assess the likelihood of an event; select and apply the statistical test or tests that are most appropriate to analyze a data set; and determine reasonable inferences and predictions from a set of data to make appropriate decisions.
