    This document provides a checklist for statistical inference projects with 8 sections that must be addressed at various levels of achievement. To achieve a basic pass, all sections must be completed with the key points listed. To achieve merit or excellence, additional criteria are required in each section, such as justifying the purpose, discussing sampling methods, comparing sample statistics, linking findings back to the research question, and reflecting on limitations. The checklist is meant to guide students in thoroughly analyzing a sample to make inferences about population parameters.

    9 Statistical Inference Check Sheet NAME___________________________


    Achieve Merit / Excellence Score
    (1) Comparative investigative - With justification of purpose
    Introduction question - A prediction is made: ‘I think that...’
    ALL needed: Variable, - Reasoning behind prediction: Why ‘I think that...’
    Groups, Population, - Contextual / research reference
    Median, Direction
    (2) Sample A random sample made - Discussion of random sampling process
    - Comment on cleaning of data
    - Discussion of appropriateness of sample size
    (3) Displays Dot & Box plot &
    Summary statistics
    (4) Analysis Informal Confidence int - Explanation of ICI for the population medians
    Either calculated - Indication of being ‘reasonably sure’ ie not 100%
    Or
    Added to the boxplot
    (5) Discussion Discussion in context of 2 - Sample statistics centre compared (mean, median)
    comparitive features:
    - Sample statistics spread compared (IQR, Std Dev)
    (must be a comparison & must - Distribution (dot plot)
    be in context – ie the variable, Symmetry, Skew, Outliers, Gaps, Clusters
    numbers, units, groups)
    - Boxplot
    Shape, Centre, Unusual, Spread, Shift / Overlap

    - Discussion linked the Research Question


    - Discussion linked the Hypothesis made
    - Discussion linked to Research
    - Reasons / justifications for observations discussed
    - Made clear that the sample is being discussed
    (6) Variability Sample variability discussed – - Sample variability discussion in context
    either referring to sample stats, - Effect of larger (or smaller) sample size discussed
    or ICI - Different intervals would probably still contain the pop
    median discussed
    (7) Statistical Inference made from the ICI to - Contextual interpretation of ICT made
    Inference make a call re the population - 'I can be reasonably sure that...'
    medians - Clearly differentiates the population & sample
    Must refer / imply population
    (8) Investigative question - Links decision to purpose
    Conclusion answered in context - Findings clearly communicated
    - Reflection on process
    - Extended discussion & further explanations
    - No misunderstandings or conflicting statements
    - Links to research
    For Achieve or better: All boxes must be checked in the ‘Achieve Column’
    Merit <35 Excellence >=35
    Grade: N A M E
