Sample Statistics

x-bar, p-hat, sx

New cards
6

Population Parameters

mu, p, sigma

New cards
7

Sample distribution statistics estimate…

population parameters

New cards
8

Sampling Variability

Different random samples of the same size from the same population produce different values for a statistic

New cards
9

Sampling Distribution

The distribution of values taken by the statistic in all possible samples of the same size from the same population

New cards
10

Unbiased estimator

The mean of the sampling distribution is equal to the value of the parameter being estimated


In a particular sample the value may not be the same, but statistic will not consistently over or under estimate

The sampling distribution of the sample proportion (p-hat) describes…

the distribution of values taken by the sample proportion (p-hat) in all possible samples of the same size form the sample population

New cards
12

Larger sample sizes tend to have…

smaller variability of the sampling distribution

New cards
13

If the population is normally distributed…
