A Study on Teaching Method of One-Sample Test for Population Mean

일표본 모평균 검정의 지도에 관한 연구

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate effects of skewness and kurtosis on the one-sample test. We have found that type I error brought about a little bit change which is ignorable in relation to kurtosis. Also the change of type I error was completely based on skewness under the same size of the sample. We conclude that using t-test is more similar to robust than using z-test. In introductory statistics classes where data analysis includes techniques for detecting skewness, we recommend the t-test when skewness is smaller than the value 1 to the one-sample test for a mean when the variances is unknown using the probability of a type I error as the criterion of interest.
