Resources for Statistics and Probability
Below are resources that the MLC created for students in other courses that you might find useful for Research Methods and Statistics.
In 2012, David gave a revision seminar to Eng Maths students about statistics and probability. He covered confidence intervals and assumption-checking for regression, some probability distributions, and some hypothesis testing. (Note the exam formula sheet used in 2012 may have changed in the future, so be careful.):
In 2016, David gave a revision seminar to Eng Maths students with some details about statistics and probability. You may find some of the advice about choosing between hypothesis tests and choosing between probability distributions useful.
In 2017, David gave a revision seminar to Eng Maths students with a part on linear regression.
In 2018, David gave a revision seminar on probability distributions. David discussed all of the distributions appearing in Eng Maths IIA in turn, including how to decide which distribution you want to use and how to use it. To view the video or download the notes, use the links below.
In 2019, David gave a revision seminar with a section on choosing what stats test to use. To watch this part of the seminar, or to download document camera notes, click on the links below:
