  Function definition: (Copy & paste into FileMaker's Edit Custom Function window)

CONFIDENCE INTERVAL CALCULATION (95%) = CI95

CI95 (of an mean) = Mean( AllData ) +/- t * STDerr

Where:

STDerr is the standard error;

The standard error of a mean is obtained by dividing the standard deviation by the square root of the sample's (AllData) numerosity (n).

AllData is the content of a multiple field or the content of a field read via a one-to-many relationship.

t is a coefficient derived from the "Table of t-values for Student's distribution" (here it's predetermined from a simplified table). You must take into account that the degrees of freedom in Italian 'Gradi Di Libertà' (GDL) are calculated as follow: AllData size - 1.
