Introduction
When starting a restaurant business, it is best to do survey to discovered what meals the client
would like in your restaurant. Unanswered questions are common while doing a market survey for
restaurant business. If this has happened to you in the past, don't panic! Although responders may
be able to react, they may not choose to do so. This is a common problem. Respondents may fail to
provide survey responses for one of four reasons.
In most surveys, respondents are reluctant to put in the time and effort unless they are given a
reward for doing so. Assume the researcher is trying to find out what food the respondent mostly
eats. There are two ways to collect this data. Either offer samples of food and allow the responder to
mark those that apply, or ask them to submit a list of everything they eaten for the past week or
restaurant. For responders, the second alternative is more convenient.
The context in which a question is suitable may differ from the situation in which it is not. It may
seem reasonable to ask about recreational activities while doing a survey for an entertainment
complex, but it is inappropriate when part of a satisfaction survey for employees. Respondents are
reluctant to answer questions that are deemed unsuitable in the context in which they are being
asked. In certain cases, researchers can change the context in which the questions are posed in
order to make the questions appear relevant for the restaurant.
Respondents may be reluctant to divulge personal information for fear of being humiliated or having
their self-esteem damaged. Respondents may offer biased answers, especially in personal
interviews, if they are pressured for an answer. Money, religion, family, sexual orientation, and
involvement in accidents or crimes are just a few examples of touchy subjects.
Question 2
Introduction
Comparing the outcomes of two different treatment groups is standard procedure in clinical centre.
Based on the kind of outcome, the statistical approaches utilized in the data analysis are different.
Researchers may want to check to see if the mean values of the outcome variables differ statistically
(such as blood pressure) in the hospital. It is common practice in statistics to use t tests to compare
differences between two sets of data when the data is normally distributed. This is especially true
for two independent sets of data, and for matched sets of data. Confusion persists over the proper
usage of these two test techniques despite their well-documented use in statistical literature.
These two samples have the same sample mean and variance.
Differences in sample mean values may be expressed as It's simple to demonstrate that the median
and standard deviation of
More precise results can be achieved if the variances of the two samples are identical. (i.e., 02 = 12).
Now, let's see what happens when we put these two expressions together: That's a given
and Xdj =X1j – X0j. The fact that and . in this case n0 =
n1 = n is the number of independent samples. In spite of this, though,
Another contrast is the fluctuation in the sample mean values. Both samples are needed in order to
estimate the variance of in independent samples. We just need the difference between each pair in
the matched-pair data to estimate the variance of the data set..
T-tests
Let's say we want to see if H0: 0 = 1 holds true for two samples with the identical mean values. A
bivariate normal distribution assumption will be made in this section. Standard deviation of sample
mean difference/difference between means is used to calculate t-test results.
According to the null hypothesis, if n0 = 0, then T1 follows the student's t-distribution with n0 + 2 n1
= 2 degrees of freedom. It's difficult to determine the exact distribution of T1 if 0 1. Behrens-Fisher is
an issue in statistics that we shall not cover here. The standard normal distribution can be used to
approximate the distribution of T1 when n0 and n1 are large enough.
Preferred T-tests are simply one sample one-sample tests based on differences between the two
pairs of samples. T2 always follows the t-distribution with df = n-1 under the null hypothesis.
