[Miss..Stats]

hello all..

i am an undergraduate student & i am studying applied statistics

I am a new member in this forum & i feel proud to see a forum which specialist in statistic topics

I hope to give and get benefits..

So,say welcome to me OR i will turn you to a critical value :mad:

[ledzep]

i will turn you to a critical value :mad:

at what level of significance? :)

WC to the club.

I have a dilemma. I want to say hi but if my department sees me as a critical value then they probably wouldn't kick me out even if I mess up...

LoL

thank you "ledzep">> The Statistician savior ;)

Now I like to be in that position. Mess up big time and still be OK.
dilemma, what dilemma? :)

Not to worry. Don't get involved in any of their papers and they will never notice :p

Ha. I meant I didn't want to say "hi" (because of the implied threat!)

Welcome Miss Stats,

In null-hypothesis testing, a critical value must be exceeded in order for the the null hypothesis to be rejected. So becoming a critical values sucks, as you are at the border but not yet significant!
I hope this makes me significant. :-P

I would urge you however to leave the null-hypothesis testing behind, and approach us from a more information theoretic point of view. How much can we learn from you and you from us?

Anyway, welcome to the forum and watch out for the raptors.

Happy Posting,

OMG I've noticed that i wrote in my 1st reply in this thread
" I will turn you to critical value" I was wrong & I meant "outlier" LOL
i don't know why i wrote critical value!! ;$

anyway,thank you for "welcome me" >>I'll not turn you to an outlier ;p

[Dason]

What's wrong with being an outlier?

[trinker]

The member outlier thinks nothing. Besides it depends if you're z = -1.96 or z = 1.96

[ledzep]

Ah! I love outliers! They make analysis more interesting (& sometimes brings a lot of pain too). Stats as a whole would be pretty dry without outliers, given that the purpose of statistics/modelling is to reduce noise!

sometimes when an outlier appears ,it suggested to kick it out of the data ;p

outliers make some action in the data ;p

i don't like outliers ;s

Yuck. Don't go throwing out outliers without a really good reason to do so.

[Miss..Stats]

i am just kidding :)

sure,we should care about outliers , i think there are some procedures used to treat with outliers
