[Statistics for dentists. Confidence intervals].
The mean score of a sample deviates most probably from the mean score of the population, in which one is most interested. It is possible to calculate a kind of minimum and maximum value, the so called confidence interval, which indicates the position of the mean score of the population. Some worked examples elucidate the procedure of constructing such confidence intervals for the population mean, using the standard error of the (sample) mean (SEM).
