Using the Student’s t-test with extremely small sample sizes
Researchers occasionally have to work with an extremely small sample size, defined herein as N ≤ 5. Some methodologists have cautioned against using the t-test when the sample size is extremely small, whereas others have suggested that using the t-test is feasible in such a case. The present simulation study estimated the Type I error rate and statistical power of the oneand two-sample ttests f...
متن کاملEconomic Statistical Design of Multivariate T^2 Control Chart with Variable Sample Sizes
Today, quality improvement and cost reduction are key factors for achieving business success, growth and position. One of the primary tools for quality improvement and cost reduction in online activities of statistical process control is control charts. As the need for monitoring several correlated quality characteristics is extensively growing, the use of multivariate control charts become...
متن کاملk - Sample t - test Redux
Testing linear combinations of normal group means with unequal variances and possibly unequal samples sizes using a t-statistic is a well known problem for which the effective degrees of freedom are unknown. ? and ? set forth their approximations based on the ratio of combinations of fourth moments, and their methodology remains the de facto standard. We propose a new approach that extends thei...
متن کاملThe Two Sample T-test with One Variance Unknown
We consider the situation in two sample testing when one variance is assumed to be known while the other variance is considered unknown. This situation arises, for example, when one is interested in comparing a standard treatment with a new treatment. Although this situation occurs relatively infrequently, our example discusses the important tool of moment matching and makes the classic two sam...
متن کاملThe Two-Sample t-Test and Randomization Test
Many Six Sigma practitioners use “Student’s” independent two-sample t-test when investigating differences in means. This type of test is based upon drawing random samples from two independent normal (Gaussian) distributions. Often, however, the assumption of normality and/or random sampling is violated. This article discusses when and why the two-sample t-test may be considered robust to these ...
