Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): abe(L)solano

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

prueba t con dos colas

Se trata de un test que se usa en estadística.
Se denomina test o prueba "t" de Student y se utiliza para determinar si hay una diferencia significativa entre las medias de dos grupos, es decir que se utiliza cuando deseamos comparar dos medias.

En la prueba t de una cola probamos si las medias son iguales o la primera mayor que la segunda, o si son iguales y la primera menor que la primera.

En la prueba t de dos colas solamente estudiamos si las medias son iguales o no, no importa la direccion es decir cual de las medias es mayor o menor que la otra, solo comprobamos si son iguales o no.
Para más información te adjunto un enlace.

prueba de la t bilateral / de dos colas

Según el Diccionario de dudas y dificultades de traducción del inglés médico (3.ª edición) de Fernando A. Navarro, no se dice *prueba t*, sino prueba de la t. Estando además la «t» en cursiva.

El Elsevier's Dictionary of Medicine dice lo mismo:
https://books.google.de/books?id=hN9QBAAAQBAJ&pg=PA716&lpg=P...

Lo mismo en este Glosario EN-ES de ensayos clínicos (2.ª parte: N-Z):

Peer comment(s):

agree Rodrigo Castillo H. : Con «bilateral». Navarro desaconseja la traducción de «two-sided» por «de dos colas».

Muchas gracias, Rodrigo. Sí, estoy de acuerdo. Por desgracia, hay poquísimos resultados con «bilateral».
