Instead we add the standard deviation squares… called variance. Also remember that we always add variances, we can’t take it out.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide The Standard Deviation of the Difference Between Two Proportions 4. Proportions observed in independent random samples are independent. Thus, we can add their variances. So… The standard deviation of the difference between two sample proportions is Thus, the standard error is

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Assumptions and Conditions 5. Independence Assumptions: Randomization Condition: The data in each group should be drawn independently and at random from a homogeneous population or generated by a randomized comparative experiment. The 10% Condition: If the data are sampled without replacement, each sample should not exceed 10% of the their population. Independent Groups Assumption: The two groups we’re comparing must be independent of each other. 6. Large Enough Sample Assumption: Success/Failure Condition: Both groups are big enough that at least 10 successes and at least 10 failures have been observed in each.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide The Sampling Distribution 7. We already know that for large enough samples, each of our proportions has an approximately Normal sampling distribution. The same is true of their difference.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide The Sampling Distribution (cont.) 8. Provided that the sampled values are independent, the samples are independent, and the samples sizes are large enough, the sampling distribution of is modeled by a Normal model with Mean: Standard deviation:

In the summer of 2003, The New England Journal of Medicine published results of some Scandinavian research. Men diagnosed with prostate cancer were randomly assigned to either undergo surgery or not. Among the 347 men who had surgery, 16 eventually died of prostate cancer, compared with 31 of the 348 who did not have surgery.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Two-Proportion z-Test 1. The typical hypothesis test for the difference in two proportions is the one of no difference. In symbols, H 0 : p 1 – p 2 = 0 Since we assume the null hypothesis is true, that means that the standard deviations for each proportion are the same. When the standard deviations of two samples are the same, we combine (pool) the counts to get one overall proportion.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Two-Proportion z-Test (cont.) 2. The pooled proportion is where and If the numbers of successes are not whole numbers, round them first. (This is the only time you should round values in the middle of a calculation.)

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Two-Proportion z-Test (cont.) 3. We then put this pooled value into the formula, substituting it for both sample proportions in the standard error formula:

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Two-Proportion z-Test 4. The conditions for the two-proportion z-test are the same as for the two-proportion z-interval. We are testing the hypothesis H 0 : p 1 - p 2 = 0. Now we find the test statistic:

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide Two-Proportion z-Test (cont.) 5. When the conditions are met and the null hypothesis is true, this statistic follows the standard Normal model, so we can use that model to obtain a P-value.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide What Can Go Wrong? 6. Don’t use two-sample proportion methods when the samples aren’t independent. These methods give wrong answers when the independence assumption is violated. Don’t apply inference methods when there was no randomization. Our data must come from representative random samples or from a properly randomized experiment.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide What have we learned? 7. Perhaps the most important thing to remember is that the concepts and interpretations are essentially the same—only the mechanics have changed slightly.

Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Slide What have we learned? 8. Hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for the difference in two proportions are based on Normal models. Both require us to find the standard error of the difference in two proportions. We do that by adding the variances of the two sample proportions, assuming our two groups are independent. When we test a hypothesis that the two proportions are equal, we pool the sample data; for confidence intervals we don’t pool.

A group of students who had never smoke were questioned about their parents’ attitudes toward smoking. These students were questioned again two years later to see if they had started smoking. The researchers found that among 284 students who indicated that their parents disapproved of kids smoking, 54 had become established smokers. Among 41 students who initially said their parents were lenient about smoking, 11 became smokers. Do these data provide strong evidence that parental attitude influences teenagers’ decisions about smoking?

Researchers identified 450 people with cardiac disease, evaluated them for depression, and followed the group for 4 years. Of the 361 patients with no depression, 67 died. Of the 89 patients with minor or major depression, 26 died. Among people who suffer from cardiac disease, are depressed patients more likely to die than non-depressed ones? c) Are the assumptions and conditions necessary for inference satisfied? Both groups are independent of each other. Depressed: 26 died and 63 didn’t. Both are > 10. Not Depressed: 67 died and 294 didn’t. Both are > 10. So both samples are reasonably large enough. Since the conditions have been met, we can create a two-proportion z-test.

Researchers found that 8% of 182 babies born to mothers who were exposed to heavy doses of soot and ash on September 11 were classified as having low birthweight. Only 4% of 2300 babies born in another New York City hospital whose mothers had not been near the site of the disaster were similarly classified. Does this indicate a possibility that air pollution might be linked to a significantly higher proportion of low weight babies?
