statsmodels.stats.proportion.proportions_ztost(count, nobs, low, upp, prop_var='sample')[source]

Equivalence test based on normal distribution

Parameters: count (integer or array_like) – the number of successes in nobs trials. If this is array_like, then the assumption is that this represents the number of successes for each independent sample nobs (integer) – the number of trials or observations, with the same length as count. upp (low,) – equivalence interval low < prop1 - prop2 < upp prop_var (string or float in (0, 1)) – prop_var determines which proportion is used for the calculation of the standard deviation of the proportion estimate The available options for string are ‘sample’ (default), ‘null’ and ‘limits’. If prop_var is a float, then it is used directly. pvalue (float) – pvalue of the non-equivalence test t1, pv1 (tuple of floats) – test statistic and pvalue for lower threshold test t2, pv2 (tuple of floats) – test statistic and pvalue for upper threshold test
