This study guide covers confidence intervals for linear regression, focusing on estimating the population slope. It explains the concept of confidence intervals, their application to linear regression, and the components involved (point estimate, margin of error, t-score, and standard error). The guide also emphasizes the conditions for inference (linearity, constant standard deviation, independence, and normality) and provides practice questions with a scoring guide. Calculator use (LinRegTInt) is recommended. Finally, it highlights common exam question types and pitfalls.
