Hypothesis Tests - Poisson Distribution

Revision Guide

What Should You Know?

In this tutorial you are shown the null hypothesis, and alternative hypothesis for one and two tailed tests for a Poisson distrubution. When to reject the null hypothesis, critical values and the difference between a nominal significance level and the actual significance level.

One Tail Test (Lower Tail) - Example

In this video you are shown how to do a one tail test in the lower tail on the Poisson distribution by two methods.
