Wald
interval (aka one proportion z-interval):
+ z* ![]()
Score interval (aka Wilson) inverts ![]()
The midpoint of the Score interval can be rewritten as:
(n /(n + z2))
+ .5(z2/(n+z2)),
a weighted average of
and 0.50.
Adjusted
Wald
interval:
+ z*
where
= (X+.5z*2)/(n+z*2), ñ= n+z*2
For 95% confidence
this is approximately:
= (X+2)/(n+4) and ñ = n+4
which adds two successes and two failures to the sample (“plus four” method)
