  2. Chi-squared test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi-squared_test

    Chi-squared distribution, showing χ2 on the x -axis and p -value (right tail probability) on the y -axis. A chi-squared test (also chi-square or χ2 test) is a statistical hypothesis test used in the analysis of contingency tables when the sample sizes are large. In simpler terms, this test is primarily used to examine whether two categorical ...

  5. Dunnett's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunnett's_test

    Dunnett's test's calculation is a procedure that is based on calculating confidence statements about the true or the expected values of the differences , thus the differences between treatment groups' mean and control group's mean. This procedure ensures that the probability of all statements being simultaneously correct is equal to a specified ...

    A prism adaptation session includes three components: the pre-test, prism exposure, and the post-test. The effects of the prism adaptation paradigm are observed when the performance on the perceptual motor task of the pre-and post-test are compared. Pre-test: For example, the pre-test measures the observer's ability to point to the visual ...

It causes a loss of ability to maintain focus ( accommodation ), high degree of farsightedness ( hyperopia ), [1] and a deep anterior chamber. Complications include detachment of the ...

  9. Likelihood-ratio test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood-ratio_test

    The likelihood-ratio test, also known as Wilks test, [2] is the oldest of the three classical approaches to hypothesis testing, together with the Lagrange multiplier test and the Wald test. [3] In fact, the latter two can be conceptualized as approximations to the likelihood-ratio test, and are asymptotically equivalent.
