<< review queue entry 31349 - submitted by 'alanwatson' >> The main authority for these is my wife, a Taiwanese university professor who teaches statistics, but see also http://zh.wikipedia.org/zh- tw/%E6%98%BE%E8%91%97%E6%80%A7%E5%B7%AE%E5%BC%82 http://zh.wikipedia.org/zh- tw/%E8%87%AA%E7%94%B1%E5%BA%A6_(%E7%BB%9F%E8%AE%A1% E5%AD%A6) http://zh.wikipedia.org/zh- tw/%E7%BD%AE%E4%BF%A1%E5%8C%BA%E9%97%B4 NB that we have a good entry for variance already but degrees of freedom and variance are two quite different things |

# Editor: we may criticize this as a construct, but it does mean "statistically significant" -- used a lot. # - 有統計學意義 有统计学意义 [you3 tong3 ji4 xue2 yi4 yi4] /statistically significant/ - 顯著 显著 [xian3 zhu4] /outstanding/notable/remarkable/ + 顯著 显著 [xian3 zhu4] /outstanding/notable/remarkable/statistically significant/ # Editor: no, this means "(having) a significant difference". Chinese Wp makes this confusion too. But take this sentence of theirs: # "比如，我們說A、B兩數據在.05水平上具備顯著性差異": would your wife say that A and B have a significance level? # or that 0.05 is the significance level? # + 顯著性差異 显著性差异 [xian3 zhu4 xing4 cha1 yi4] /significance level (statistics)/ + 虛無假設 虚无假设 [xu1 wu2 jia3 she4] /null hypothesis (statistics)/ - 總體 总体 [zong3 ti3] /completely/totally/total/entire/overall/ + 總體 总体 [zong3 ti3] /completely/totally/total/entire/overall/population (statistics)/ - 自由度 自由度 [zi4 you2 du4] /(math.) (number of) degrees of freedom/variance/ # + 自由度 自由度 [zi4 you2 du4] /(number of) degrees of freedom (statistics)/ # Editor: not restricted to stats + 自由度 自由度 [zi4 you2 du4] /(number of) degrees of freedom (physics and statistics)/ + 信賴區間 信赖区间 [xin4 lai4 qu1 jian1] /confidence interval (statistics)/ |
