<p>How do I test if the difference between probabilities is statistically significant. I know the population size and population variation. A simple t-test or ANOVA would work for variables, but how do I test for probabilities? </p> <p>A completed a Monte Carlo simulation which returns a probability, $p$, given a set a variables, $x$. I need to know if the probabilities for different set of variables, are statistically different.</p>
