A study reports a 95% confidence interval for the mean of 0.1 to
0.4. Which of the following is a CORRECT interpretation of this
confidence interval?
a. The null hypothesis that the true mean equals 0 is
likely to be incorrect.
b. If we were to repeat this experiment many times, about
95% of our confidence intervals would contain the true mean.
c. There is a 95% probability that the true mean lies
between 0.1 and 0.4.
d. The probability that the true mean is greater than 0 is
at least 95%.
0.4. Which of the following is a CORRECT interpretation of this
confidence interval?
a. The null hypothesis that the true mean equals 0 is
likely to be incorrect.
b. If we were to repeat this experiment many times, about
95% of our confidence intervals would contain the true mean.
c. There is a 95% probability that the true mean lies
between 0.1 and 0.4.
