FInd the z* values based on a standard normal distribution for each of the following: (no table provided)
a. An 88% confidence interval for a correlation
b. A 66% confidence interval for a slope
We want to find the z* values based on a standard normal distribution for each of the following,
a) An 88% confidence interval for a correlation
Significance level = 1 - 0.88 = 0.12
Therefore, z-score corresponds to probability 0.94 is,
z* = 1.555
Excel command: =NORMSINV(0.94) = 1.555
b) A 66% confidence interval for a slope
significance level = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34
Therefore, z-score corresponds to probability 0.83 is,
z* = 0.954
Excel command: =NORMSINV(0.83) = 0.954
