Two-Sample Problems
‹ The
goal of inference is to compare the
responses to two treatments or to
compare the characteristics of two
populations.
‹ We have a separate sample from each
treatment or each population. The units
are not matched, and the samples can be
of differing sizes.

Inference about the Difference p1 – p2
Simple Conditions
‹ The
difference in the population proportions is
estimated by the difference in the sample
ˆ 1 − pˆ 2
proportions: p

both of the samples are large, the
sampling distribution of this difference is
approximately Normal with mean p1 – p2 and
standard deviation

Standard Error
Since the population proportions p1 and
p2 are unknown, the standard deviation
of the difference in sample proportions
will need to be estimated by substituting
pˆ 1 and pˆ 2 for p1 and p2:

for the two machines is between -3.97% and 4.39%. Since 0 is in
this interval, it is unlikely that the two machines differ in reliability.

Adjustment to Confidence Interval
“Plus Four” Confidence Interval for p1 – p2
‹ The
standard confidence interval approach
yields unstable or erratic inferences.
‹ By
adding four imaginary observations (one
success and one failure to each sample),
the inferences can be stabilized.
‹ This
leads to more accurate inference of the
difference of the population proportions.

this interval, it is unlikely that the two machines differ in reliability.

The Hypotheses for Testing
Two Proportions

Pooled Sample Proportion
‹
‹
‹
If H0 is true (p1=p2), then the two proportions are
equal to some common value p.
Instead of estimating p1 and p2 separately, we will
combine or pool the sample information to estimate p.
This combined or pooled estimate is called the
pooled sample proportion, and we will use it in
place of each of the sample proportions in the
expression for the standard error SE.
p̂ = total number of successes in both samples
total number of observatio ns in both samples

Test Statistic for Two Proportions

Use the pooled sample proportion in place of each of
the individual sample proportions in the expression for
the standard error SE in the test statistic:

p1 > p2
P-value is the probability of getting a value as large or
larger than the observed test statistic (z) value.
p1 < p2
P-value is the probability of getting a value as small or
smaller than the observed test statistic (z) value.
p1 ≠ p2
P-value is two times the probability of getting a value as
large or larger than the absolute value of the observed test
statistic (z) value.

Case Study
Summer Jobs
‹
‹
‹
A university financial aid office polled a simple
random sample of undergraduate students to study
their summer employment.
Not all students were employed the previous
summer. Here are the results:
Summer Status

Is there evidence that the proportion of male students
who had summer jobs differs from the proportion of
female students who had summer jobs.

P-value:
P-value = 2P(Z > 5.07) = 0.000000396
(using a computer)
P-value = 2P(Z > 5.07) < 2(1 – 0.9998) = 0.0004 (Table A)
[since 5.07 > 3.49 (the largest z-value in the table)]
Conclusion:
Since the P-value is smaller than α = 0.001, there is very
strong evidence that the proportion of male students who had
summer jobs differs from that of female students.
