Correlatie of causaliteit?

Een goede Data Scientist kan de beperkingen van een studie herkennen en onderscheid maken tussen een simpele correlatie en een causaal verband waar A/B-tests ons uitspraken over laten doen. De DataFrame gen_habits is voor je geladen en bevat de kolommen monthly_orders en monthly_hours. De fictieve data is observationeel van aard (dus niet onderdeel van een gecontroleerd experiment). Welke van de volgende uitspraken beschrijft de relatie tussen de twee variabelen het best?

In this chapter, you’ll learn the foundations of A/B testing. You’ll explore clear steps and use cases, learn the reasons and value of designing and running A/B tests, and discover the most commonly used metrics design and estimation frameworks.

Exercise 1: Wat is A/B-testen?Exercise 2: Wanneer een A/B-test niet de beste keuze is Exercise 3: Stappen van A/B-testen Exercise 4: Effecten van randomisatie Exercise 5: Waarom experimenten uitvoeren?Exercise 6: Correlatievisualisatie Exercise 7: Correlatie of causaliteit?

In Chapter 2, you’ll cover the experiment design process. Starting with learning how to formulate strong A/B testing hypotheses, you’ll also cover statistical concepts such as power, error rates, and minimum detectable effects. You’ll finish the chapter by learning to estimate the appropriate sample size needed to yield conclusive results and tackle scenarios with multiple comparisons.

Exercise 1: Hypothesis formulation and distributions Exercise 2: Strong hypothesis formulation Exercise 3: Plotting distributions Exercise 4: Central limit theorem for means Exercise 5: Experimental design: setting up testing parameters Exercise 6: Interpreting p-values Exercise 7: Error rates in the wild Exercise 8: Experimental design: power analysis Exercise 9: Plotting power curves Exercise 10: Sample size for means Exercise 11: Sample size for proportions Exercise 12: Multiple comparisons tests Exercise 13: Is a multiple comparisons correction needed?Exercise 14: Corrected p-values

Here, you’ll discover a concrete workflow for cleaning, preprocessing, and exploring AB testing data, as well as learn the necessary sanity checks we need to follow to ensure valid results. You’ll explore a detailed explanation and example of analyzing difference in proportions A/B tests.

In the final chapter, you’ll develop frameworks for analyzing differences in means and leveraging non-parametric tests when several assumptions aren't met. You’ll also learn how to apply the Delta method when analyzing ratio metrics and discover the best practices and some advanced topics to continue the A/B testing mastery journey.
