Abstract

The so-called confidence interval for the first moment (expectation) of a random variable X based on the t-distribution and the confidence interval for the variance based on the χ2-distribution are two very important statistical methods. They allow to determine the value μ of E[X] and the value σ2 of V[X] for given confidence level β. These two statistical methods fit perfectly well into the stochastic approach and, therefore, they are used here to illustrate stochastic measurement procedures.

The first moment E[X] and the variance V[X] of a random variable X are of utmost importance and, therefore, stochastic β-measurement procedures for them are crucial for developing a stochastic model for a given random variable. In this paper the two statistical methods are used for deriving stochastic procedures.
