Document Summary

What significance levels between = . 01 and = . 15 are available for a two-tailed sign test with. 25 paired observations? (make use of tabulated values in table 1, appendix 3, n = 25. ) For reject for very large or very small values of m; Very large (or) small values of m are most contradictory to the null hypothesis. Therefore, the rejection region for the test will be located by including the most extreme values of m that at the same time provide a value of that is suitable for test. Suppose that we would like the value of to be between 0. 01 and 0. 15. we commence the selection of the rejection region by including and and calculate the associated with this region, using. , the probability distribution for the binomial random variable with. Because this value of is too small, the region will be expanded by including the next pair of m-values most contradictory to the null hypothesis and.
