What happens to the distribution of the sample means if the sample size is increased?

the means does not change


Does the distribution of sample means have a standard deviation that increases with the sample size?

No, it is not.


What is a sample size?

When something is a sample size, that means it is smaller than the size that is normally available for purchase. Sample size products are usually enough to let you try something before you buy it.

What does the Central Limit Theorem say about the traditional sample size that separates a large sample size from a small sample size?

The Central Limit Theorem states that the sampling distribution of the sample means approaches a normal distribution as the sample size gets larger — no matter what the shape of the population distribution. This fact holds especially true for sample sizes over 30.


What is the standard deviation of the sample means called?

The standard deviation of the sample means is called the standard error of the mean (SEM). It quantifies the variability of sample means around the population mean and is calculated by dividing the population standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. The SEM decreases as the sample size increases, reflecting improved estimates of the population mean with larger samples.


What property like volume depends of the size of the sample?

The property that depends on the size of the sample is extensive. Extensive properties, such as mass and energy, scale with the size of the sample. This means that as the sample size increases, the value of the property also increases proportionally.


What is the mean of the sample means that is normally distributed with a mean of 10 standard deviation of 2 and a sample size f 25?

The mean of the sample means, also known as the expected value of the sampling distribution of the sample mean, is equal to the population mean. In this case, since the population mean is 10, the mean of the sample means is also 10. The standard deviation of the sample means, or the standard error, would be the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size, which is ( \frac{2}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.4 ).


What is absolute sample size?

It is the number of elements in the sample. By contrast, the relative sample size is the absolute sample size divided by the population size.


What does randomisation mean?

It means that the every element in a population has an equal chance of being selected to be in the sample which is studied. Equivalently, in considering a sample of a particular size, every possible sample of that size has the same chance of being selected.


Describe how the sample size affects the standard error?

Standard error (which is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means), defined as σ/√n, n being the sample size, decreases as the sample size n increases. And vice-versa, as the sample size gets smaller, standard error goes up. The law of large numbers applies here, the larger the sample is, the better it will reflect that particular population.


What is the difference between sample and sample size?

a sample is a sample sized piece given... a sample size is the amount given in one sample
