A.4 Critical Values of the t Distribution


The critical value tk,q is the value below which lies an area q under the density curve of the t distribution
with k degrees of freedom. That is, quantile q of the tk distribution. Tabled are these critical values
tk,q for selected degrees of freedom k and quantiles q. This is shown graphically in Figure A.2, in which
the curve represents a tk density curve. The critical value tk,q is the value t in the figure for which the
shaded area equals q.
Note that a t distribution with degrees of freedom ∞ is a N (0, 1) distribution.
