when do we use a binomial test
a test of difference with a related design and nominal data
step 1 of a binomial test
data is catagorised into a table of results
step 2 of a binomial test
work out the sign for the results (flow of direction)
what is the flow of direction when results go yes to no
positive +
what is the flow of direction when results go no to yes
negative -
what happens when there is yes yes or no no flow of results
ignore and omit
step 3 of a binomial test
work out the totals of each sign
step 4 of a binomial test
calculate the observed value of s
what does the value of s refer to in a binomial test
the smallest total of each sign
what does n refer to in a binomial test
amount of applicable results
step 5 of a binomial test
find the critical value of s
does the observed value need to be greater than/equal to or less than/equal to to be significant in a binomial test
less than or equal to
