OBJECTIVES: Upon completion of this activity, the participant should be able to:
1. Describe the concept that a confidence interval is theoretically based on repeated samples drawn from a population.
2. Explain that although about 95% of a large number of 95% confidence intervals may cover the population parameter of interest, this does not mean that there is a 95% chance that a single 95% confidence interval covers the parameter of interest.
3. Analyze confidence intervals as an alternative to alpha and p vales in determining if an experimental fining is statistically significant.
