Class 1 : Introduction & Basic Concepts
Probability frequency of the occurrence of an event


Pex) Odds / ( t + Odds)
=




Odds :
probability of event
happening / probability of event not
happening
odds =
P ( x ) / ( t Pex )) -





Outcome space = the set of all possible outcomes of an event

PET Terms

⑨ Probability There is 1/2 chance of getting flipping it
: a the heads side of a coin when once .




② Odds : The odds of getting the tails side of a coin when
flipping it once are even .




③ Odds Ratio :
The odds ratio of getting the tails side of a coin when
flipping it once is 50/50 .




④ Outcome Space : When
flipping a coin there are two outcomes i
taikorhea = outcome space ( aka sampler space) .




⑤ Conceptual definition
'

: A
coin has two sides front humeri call heads ( illustration) is called the faith
'


.
The is called the .
The back



⑥ Operational definition : To measure chances of
getting head or tails ,
a coin is
going to be flipped 10 times and the times of heads Ho and tails 110 will be measured .
. .




④ Construct Validity :
Measuring systolic top
when
examining proportion of high bp patients in a sample .




⑧ Content validity : high top can be captured by the systolic bp measurement .




⑨ Probability Sample : 5%5%0 every student Teacher randomly choses the question by chasing ( blind to student assignment)
