Estimation (point estimators and confidence intervals):
- Estimating population parameters and margins of error
- Properties of point estimators, including unbiasedness and variability
- Logic of confidence intervals, meaning of confidence level and confidence intervals, and properties of confidence intervals
- Large sample confidence interval for a proportion
- Large sample confidence interval for a difference between two proportions
- Confidence interval for a mean
- Confidence interval for a difference between two means (unpaired and paired)
- Confidence interval for the slope of a least-squares regression line
Tests of significance:
- Logic of significance testing, null and alternative hypotheses; p-values; one and two-sided tests; concepts of Type I and Type II errors; concept of power
- Large sample test for a proportion
- Large sample test for a difference between two proportions
- Test for a mean
- Test for a difference between two means (unpaired and paired)
- Chi-square test for goodness of fit, homogeneity of proportions, and independence (one and two-way tables)
- Test for the slope of a least-squares regression line
