Critical Value Calculator

Well, finding critical values becomes easy with the ease of our critical value calculator; this efficient tool allows you to calculate critical values for the t, z, chi-square and f distributions. A t critical value is the ‘cut-off point’ on a t distribution.

No doubt, the t value is almost the same with the z critical value that is said to be as the ‘cut-off point’ on a normal distribution. When it comes to variation between these two, they have different shapes.

What Is a Critical Value?

A critical value is said to be as a line on a graph that divides a distribution graph into sections that indicate ‘rejection regions.’ Generally, if a test value falls into a rejection rejoin, then it means that an accepted hypothesis (represent as a null hypothesis) should be rejected.

And, if the test value falls into the accepted range, then remember that the null hypothesis cannot be rejected. You can readily find critical value using simple critical value formula and a critical value table.

How to Calculate Critical Value With This Tool

Simply, you just have to follow the given steps:

Find Critical Value for T

Inputs:

At first, you ought to select the option “Critical value for t” from the drop-down list
Now, you just have to add the value of the “significance level” into the designated field
Finally, you have to add the value of “degrees of freedom” into the designated field

Outputs:

After adding values into the above fields, just hit the calculate button, this t critical value calculator with sample size calculates:

Critical value for t (Right Tailed)

Outputs:

Now, hit the calculate button, this z value calculator will show:

Critical value for z (Right Tailed)
Critical value for z (Two Tailed)

Find Critical Value for Chi-Square

Inputs:

First, choose the option “Critical value for chi-square” form the list of drop-down
Then, simply add the value for a “significance level” into the above-designated box
Very next, add the value for a “degrees of freedom” into the given field of calculator

Outputs:

Now, you have to make a click on the calculate button, this chi square critical value calculator to calculate chi square value for the distribution, the tool generates:

Chi-Square critical value (Right Tailed)
Chi-Square critical value (Two Tailed)
P value (for the chi square distribution)

Find Critical Value For F

Inputs:

First, choose the option of “Critical value for f” from the given drop-down menu
Very next, you have to enter the value of a “degrees of freedom 1” into the designated field
Right after, you ought to add the value of a “degrees if freedom 2” into the given box
Finally, put the value of “significance level” into the designated box

Outputs:

Once done, click on the calculate button, this f value calculator will generate:

Critical value f (Right Tailed)
Critical value f (Two Tailed)

Z Score Table (Right):

The z-table is the normal distribution shows the area to the right-hand side of the curve. You can use these values to determine the area between z=0 and any positive (+) value.
