inferential statistics

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I think it is inferential...because you are using a larger population

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Inferential statistics is concerned with making predictions or inferences about a population from observations and analyses of a sample. That is, we can take the results of an analysis using a sample and can generalize it to the larger population that the sample represents. In order to do this, however, it is imperative that the sample is representative of the group to which it is being (generalized).

OpenStudy (texaschic101):
