The method is motivated by scenarios where many variables may be simultaneously connected to an output.

Making causal conclusions based on experiments is often reasonable. However, making the same causal conclusions based on observational data can be treacherous and is not recommended. Thus, observational studies are generally only sufficient to show associations.

The methods are similar in theory but different in the details. Just as with a single sample, we identify conditions to ensure a point estimate of the difference is nearly normal. Next we introduce a formula for the standard error, which allows us to apply our general tools discussed previously.

Our main interest is in inferential statistics to try to infer from the data what the population might thin or to evaluate the probability that an observed difference between groups is a dependable one or one that might have happened by chance in this study. Nevertheless, the starting point for dealing with a collection of data is to organize, display, and summarize it effectively.

In each case, the inference ideas remain the same: Identify an appropriate distribution for the point estimate or test statistic. Each section in Chapter 5 explores a new situation: the difference of two means (5.1, 5.2); a single mean or difference of means where we relax the minimum sample size condition (5.3, 5.4); and the comparison of means across multiple groups (5.5).

We consider three examples. In the first, we compare the approval of the 2010 healthcare law under two different question phrasings. In the second application, a company weighs whether they should switch to a higher quality parts manufacturer.
