To measure the mean of a group of numbers, add all of the numbers up. Then, divide by the number of numbers in the group.
Example: 3,4,4,5,6,7,10.
3+4+4+5+6+7+10= 39
39/7=5.51428.............etc.
sample statistic
The test statistic is a measure of how close the sample proportion is to the null value.
this is false... a parameter is a measure of a mean or mode, a measurable characteristic of a sample is called a statistic.
A statistic is a summary measure of some characteristic of a population. If you were to take repeated samples from the population you would not get the same statistic each time - it would vary. And the set of values you would get is its sampling distribution.

Correlation coefficient is a statistic that is commonly used in Psychology. It is a type of descriptive statistic that measures direction and strength in variables.
A statistic is a value calculated from a data sample. For example, the mean (average) is a statistic. You calculate the mean by adding up the values of the data you have and dividing by the number of values. Usually, you want to know the corresponding value for the whole population but this is impossible to obtain in practice. So you have to use a statistic calculated from a sample. For eaxmple, if you want to know the height of sixteen year old students in the UK, you cannot measure every single student. So you measure a sample (selected randomly), and calculate the average height of the sample. This is a statistic. See: http://www.stats.gla.ac.uk/steps/glossary/basic_definitions.html#stat
