If the original value lies within the calculated confidence interval but is different from the calculated mean does it have the same probablity of being correct as the calculated mean?

How do you calculate confidence interval?
Confidence intervals may be calculated for any statistics, but the most common statistics for which CI's are computed are mean, proportion and standard deviation. I have include a link, which contains a worked out example for the confidence interval of a mean.
Why confidence interval useful?
Why confidence interval is useful
In a confidence interval what information does the margin of error provide?
The confidence interval consists of a central value and a margin of error around that value. If it is an X% confidence interval then there is a X% probability that the true value of the statistic in question lies inside the interval. Another way of looking at it is that if you took repeated samples and calculated the test statistic each time, you should expect X% of the test statistics to fall within the confidence interval.
What happens to the confidence interval if you increase the confidence level?
The confidence interval becomes wider.
What is meant by a 95 percent confidence interval?
Confidence IntervalsConfidence interval (CI) is a parameter with a degree of confidence. Thus, 95 % CI means parameter with 95 % of confidence level. The most commonly used is 95 % confidence interval.Confidence intervals for means and proportions are calculated as follows:point estimate ± margin of error.
What Confidence interval is 0.05 alpha?
how are alpha and confidence interval related
The width of a confidence interval is equal to twice the value of the margin of error?
No. The width of the confidence interval depends on the confidence level. The width of the confidence interval increases as the degree of confidence demanded from the statistical test increases.
What happens to the confidence interval as the mean decreases?
The confidence interval is not directly related to the mean.
What happens to the confidence interval if you increase the sample size?
The confidence interval becomes smaller.
Is a 95 percent confidence interval for a mean wider than a 99 percent confidence interval?
No, it is not. A 99% confidence interval would be wider. Best regards, NS
What is the most controllable method of increasing the precision of or narrowing the confidence interval?
Confidence intervals represent an interval that is likely, at some confidence level, to contain the true population parameter of interest. Confidence interval is always qualified by a particular confidence level, expressed as a percentage. The end points of the confidence interval can also be referred to as confidence limits.
Is confidence interval and confidence limits are same thing?
no,these are not the same thing.The values at each end of the interval are called the confidence limits.
