    Can You Calculate a P-Value for Correlation Between Non-Parametric Data?

    I have made a correlation between group A and B and the pearsson coefficient constant, r, is at 0.97. The values are expression levels and hence they are non-parametric. I wonder how can i calculate the p-value of this correlation between group A and B? I know how to calculate the p-value for...

    Can someone help me with a Statistic problem?

    Consider a survey of n people asking whether they plan to use Route A or Route B, with an anticipated fraction p choosing Route A. If p = .30, plot the 95% confidence bounds and the expected value of X as a function of n, for n = 50 to n = 800. I have no idea where to start or how to work...

    How to measure if a statistic is accurate?

    I am studying the performance statistic of some coding techniques on messages of 380 bits long. I studied it by generating bit sequences randomly and test the performance on each sample. But the sample space is so large (2^380) and practically I can only randomly test about 10^5-10^6 samples...

    What kind of statistic methods?

    Okey, i am confused about this matter. I have two different samples. One is 5 untreated/control samples (same kind) and the other is a 50 treated samples (same kind). I wonder what kind of statistic methods i can use to compare the results between them? I don't think that i can use ANOVA...

    Solve SAT Math & Listening Tests: 90% Confidence Interval

    An SRS of 16 Orange County Schools' juniors had a mean SAT MATH of x = 500; and a Standard Deviation of s=100. We know that the population of SAT Math scores for juniors in the district is approximately normaly distributed. We wish to determine a 90% confidence interval for the mean SAT math...
