Calculators for Statistical Table Entries
z to P Calculator
For any given value of z, this section will calculate
| º
| the respective one-tailed probabilities of z and +z;
| º
| the two-tailed probability of±z;
| º
| and the proportion of the normal distribution falling between z and +z.
| | |
To proceed, enter the value of z in the designated cell and click «Calculate». Note that the programming for this section is able to perform meaningful probability calculations only for cases where |z|
<5.

Chi-Square to P Calculator
For values of df between 1 and 20, inclusive, this section will calculate the proportion of the relevant sampling distribution that falls to the right of a particular value of chi-square. To proceed, enter the values of chi-square and df in the designated cells and click «Calculate».
Click here to see the details of the sampling
distribution to which any particular value of
chi-square belongs. At the prompt, enter the
appropriate value of df.

t to P Calculator
This section will calculate the one-tail and two-tail probabilities of t for any given value of df. To proceed, enter the values of t and df in the designated cells and click «Calculate».
Click here to see the details of the sampling
distribution to which any particular value of t
belongs. At the prompt, enter the appropriate
value of df.

r to P Calculator
If the true correlation between X and Y within the general population is
rho=0, and if the size of the sample, N, on which an observed value of r is based is equal to or greater than 6, then the quantity
is distributed approximately as t with
df=N2. Application of this formula to any particular observed sample value of r will accordingly test the null hypothesis that the observed value comes from a population in which
rho=0.
To assess the significance of any particular instance of r,
enter the values of
N[>6] and r into the designated cells below, then click the 'Calculate' button.

Fisher r-to-z Transformation
For any particular value of r, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, this section will perform the Fisher
r-to-z transformation according to the formula
zr = (1/2)[loge(1+r) - loge(1-r)]
|
If a value of n is entered (optional), it will also calculate the standard error of z
r as

F to P Calculator
This section will calculate the proportion of the relevant sampling distribution that falls to the right of a particular value of F, as defined by the degrees of freedom for the numerator and denominator of the F-ratio. To proceed, enter the values of F and df in the designated cells and click «Calculate».

Critical Values of Q
This section will calculate the .05 and .01 critical values for the Studentized range statistic Q. To proceed, enter the number of groups in the analysis (k) and the number of degrees of freedom, and then click «Calculate». Note that the value of k must be between 3 and 10, inclusive.

Odds & Log Odds
Given p, an observed proportion or probability:
Odds = p/(1-p)
Log Odds: LO = loge[Odds]= loge[p/(1-p)]
Given the Log Odds: Odds = exp[LO]
Given the Odds: p = Odds/(1+Odds)
Enter any one of these itemsp, Odds, or Log Odds into the designated cell, then click the «Calculate» button to fetch the corresponding values of the other two. If entering p, the entry can be either a decimal fraction or a common fraction.
