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.

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.

These observations form the backbone of a statistical investigation and are called data. Statistics is the study of how best to collect, analyze, and draw conclusions from data. It is helpful to put statistics in the context of a general process of investigation: Identify a question or problem. Collect relevant data on the topic. Analyze the data. Form a conclusion.
