• Section 8.1 – Inference for a Population Proportion
  • online resources:
    1. Confidence Interval on a Proportion - http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~lane/stat_sim/normal_approx_conf/index.html
       This applet allows you to explore the validity of confidence intervals on a proportion with various values of n and p₀.
    2. The Proportion Test Experiment - http://www.ds.unifi.it/VL/VL_EN/hypothesis/
       (Click on link). This applet selects a random sample of size n from the Bernoulli distribution with parameter p, and then tests a hypothesis about p at a specified significance level.
    3. Tests of Proportions - http://www.math.csusb.edu/faculty/stanton/m262/proportions/proportions.html
       This applet simulates a series of hypothesis of tests for the value of the parameter p.
    4. Drawing Conclusions About a Proportion I - http://www.dartmouth.edu/~matc/X10/java/PropSim4.html
       This applet illustrates some of the key ideas behind hypothesis testing of a proportion.
    5. Drawing Conclusions About a Proportion II - http://biosun01.biostat.jhsph.edu/~fboyd/fsession4.html
       (Click on link). This interactive program is designed to illustrate some of the key ideas behind hypothesis testing.
       
       
• Section 8.2 – Comparing Two Proportions
  • online resources:
    1. Proportions: Two sample - http://www.stat.sc.edu/webstat/version2.0/stat/TwoSampleP.html
       This site contains a link to WebStat that calculates confidence intervals and/or hypothesis tests for the difference of two population proportions using data from two independent samples.
