- Confidence Intervals
- … probability model adequate, or is coverage degraded by assumption violations?* The frame clarifies what the CI provides — calibrated long-run coverage of the procedure, communicating both point estimate and uncertainty bands — and what it does NOT — a direct probability that the specific observed interval contains θ
This sourceArgues that a confidence interval does not warrant the belief that the specific observed interval contains the parameter with the stated probability.
