28. Writing Assignment – Pop Quiz Distance from the mean X Taller 2 inches
Preston is 2” taller than the mean (taller than most)
Taller
2 inches
Shorter X
Mike is 4” shorter than the mean (shorter than most)
Shorter
4 inches
Taller X
Equal to mean
Diallo is exactly same height as mean (half taller half shorter)
0 inches
Half are Shorter

29. Writing Assignment – Pop Quiz Sigma – standard deviation - population
Parameter
mu – a mean – an average - population
Parameter
x-bar – a mean – an average - sample
statistic
s – standard deviation - sample
statistic
The number of “standard deviations” the score is from the mean
population
Sigma squared and s squared - variance
Sigma is parameter (population) s is statistic (sample)
Deviation scores
(x-µ) for population (parameter) (x-x) is statistic (sample)
Sum of squares
On left is statistic on right is parameter
Standard deviation
s is statistic sigma is parameter
Degrees of freedom
