A parameter is the limit that defines the extent of an activity. Parametric study analyzes parameters.

Definition of Parametric modeling?

it is the molding that is parametric


Is a t-test a parametric study?

Yes, it is. The one sample t-test is a study of the parameter population-mean. You can also use the t-test to test for the difference between two population means (both parameters).


What is the difference between parametric and nonparametric statistical tests in Health care?

Parametric tests draw conclusions based on the data that are drawn from populations that have certain distributions. Non-parametric tests draw fewer conclusions about the data set. The majority of elementary statistical methods are parametric because they generally have larger statistical outcomes. However, if the necessary conclusions cannot be drawn about a data set, non-parametric tests are then used.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of parametric statistics?

no


Does descriptive statistics means parametric statistics?

No. Descriptive statistics are those that characterise samples without attempting to draw conclusions. The purpose of them is to help investigators to form an understanding of what the data might be capable of telling them. Descriptive statistics include graphs as well as measures of location, scale, correlation, and so on. Parametric statistics are those that are based on probabilistic models (ie, mathematical models involving probability) that involve parameters. For instance, an investigator might assume that her results have come from a population that is normally distributed with a certain mean and standard deviation; this would be a parametric model. She could estimate this pair of parameters, the mean and standard deviation, using parametric statistics, or test hypotheses about them, again using parametric statistics. In either case the parametric statistics she uses would be based on the parametric mathematical model she has chosen for her data.
