95% Confidence Intervals 1) Interpreting 95% CI 2) Compare CI, SE and sd 3) Effect of sd and n on 95% CI s Note: This video follows the videos addressing Standard Error and calculating 95% CI s 1
What is a 95% Confidence Interval? If we repeated our experiment many times and calculated a 95% CI each time, the 95% CI s would include the true value (assuming assumptions are met) 95% of the time. 2

What is a 95% Confidence Interval? Review: compare standard deviation, SE, 95% CI s: A less technical view: 95% CI s provide a plausible range for the true value we aim to estimate. 8 6 4 2 sd and n affect SE and CI similarly. 0 sd CI SE 4
