Central Limit Theorem (CLT) 中央極限定理

When
population mean = μ
population variance = σ2

random sample of size n
random samples: X1, X2, ..., Xn,

z-score/z-value/standard score z分數/標準化值 (Wikipedia/維基百科)

sum of samples/sample sum 樣本和 Sn = (X1 + X2 + ... + Xn) = ΣXi where i = 1 to n
sample mean 樣本平均數 = (X1 + X2 + ... + Xn)/n = Sn/n
sample variance 樣本變異數 s2
sample standard deviation 樣本標準差 s
sample size n

if σ is known:

Z = ( - μ)/(σ/√ n) = (Sn - n)/σn

When n → ∞ (n >= 30),

Z ~ N(0, 1)

One special case of gamma distribution:
chi-square distribution 卡方分布 (χ2) α = v/2 or n/2, β = 2 for gamma distribution.

χ2 = (n - 1)s22 with n-1 degrees of freedom.

if σ is unknown and n is large:

sσ

Student t-distribution/Student's t-distribution 學生t分布
t-distribution t分布

T = ( - μ)/(s/√ n)  with n-1 degrees of freedom.

t-table:
row: probability α at tα
column - degree of freedom

Normal Distribution 常態分布/常態分配

normal distribution 常態分布/常態分配
Gaussian distribution 高斯分布

If random variable X has a normal distribution N(μ,σ2),
the probability density function (pdf) of X is:

f(x) = [1/√(2πσ2)]exp[-(x-μ)2/2σ2]

=====

Excel formulas:

NORM.DIST(X, μσ, cumulative)

if cumulative = true => cdf
if cumulative = false => pdf

=====

Z-score/Z-value/Z-transform/standard score z分數/z轉換/標準化值 (Wikipedia/維基百科)
How to get the Z-tansform from normal random variable X:
Z = (X - μ)/σ where μ = population mean and σ = populaiton variance

Z 是N(0,1) 的標準常態分布

(Note: The Z-transform used in statistics is not the Z-transform used is digital signal processing. 此處的Z轉換與數位訊號處理DSP中的Z轉換不同)

standard normal probability distribution 標準常態機率分布 N(0,1)
mean μ = 0 and variance σ2 = 1

======

Excel Formula:

Z = STANDARDIZE(X, μ, σ)

Inverse Z ie get Z score with known cumulative probability (area under curve):
e.g. α=5% => Zα/2 = NORM.INV(1-α/2, μ, σ) = NORM.INV(1-2.5%, 0, 1) since μ = 0 and σ = 1 for the standard normal distribution.

======

If X1...Xn are normally distributed as N(μ,σ2),
ΣZi2 = Σ((X - μ)/σ)2 is a χ2 distribution with n degrees of freedom.
ΣXi2 is a χ2 distribution with n degrees of freedom.

systematic sampling 系統抽樣/系統性抽樣 - every Kth element, e.g, 3, 10, 17, 24, ... (K=7)
stratified sampling 分層抽樣 - e.g. student age, university, major
cluster sampling 部落抽樣/叢集抽樣
multiphase sampling 多相抽樣 multistage sampling 多段抽樣

非隨機抽樣
convenience sampling 偶遇抽樣/方便抽樣
quota sampling 配額抽樣/定額抽樣
purposive sampling 主觀抽樣 / judgmental sampling 立意抽樣
snowball sampling 滾雪球抽樣

validity 效度
