+To perform a z-test with a sample :math:`X` of size :math:`n`, you should compute the sample *standard score* (or *z-score*).
The *z-score*, noted :math:`Z`, characterizes how far from the population mean :math:`\mu` your sample mean :math:`\overline{x}` is, in unit of standard deviation :math:`\sigma`.
It is computed as follow:
.. math::
- Z=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\sigma}
+ Z=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\sigma_\overline{x}}=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}
.. note::
- The following formula can also be seen, when the original population :math:`\sigma` is unknown:
-
- .. math::
- Z=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\mathrm{SEM}}=\frac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}
-
- In this case, :math:`Z` technically follow a t-distribution (student test).
- However, if :math:`n` is sufficiently large, the distribution followed by :math:`Z` is very close to a normal one.
- So close that, using z-test in place of the student test to compute *p-values* leads to nominal differences (`source `__).
+ The SEM is used in the denominator to account for inaccuracies of :math:`\overline{x}`.
+ The more samples are collected, the more the denominator tends toward :math:`\sigma`.
+ See :ref:`SEM ` for more details.
From :math:`Z`, a *p-value* can be derived using the :math:`\mathcal{N}(0,1)` :ref:`CDF ` noted :math:`\Phi_{0,1}(x)`:
