Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The one-sample Z-test calculates the obtained value, which is the number of standard errors that the sample statistic is away from the population parameter. This obtained value is then compared to a critical value to determine whether the null hypothesis should be rejected or not. The level of significance and power are not directly calculated by the one-sample Z-test.
