What is the description of sample?
Statistic
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 is the difference between 2 sample z test statistic and 2 sample t test statistic?

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
What is the critical value of an inferential statistic and how does it relate to the alpha level?
For an inferential statistic such as a one-sided t, an F or a chi-square test, a critical value is the number above which a fraction of the values of the inference statistics equal to the alpha level would fall on repeated trials if the null hypothesis were true. For example, suppose the research has chosen an alpha level of 0.05. She has a sample size of 11 and will be using a one-sided t-statistic because she is interested in deciding whether the mean of the population from which she has drawn her sample exceeds a certain given value. The critical value for a t-test in this situation is about 1.8 because about 0.05 of the time anyone could take a sample of size 11 from a population with a known mean and find that the t-statistic calculated for the sample exceeds 1.8.
How does sample size effect the test statistic?
The larger the sample size, the more accurate the test results.
As the sample size increases what does the expected value of M do?
You have not defined M, but I will consider it is a statistic of the sample. For an random sample, the expected value of a statistic, will be a closer approximation to the parameter value of the population as the sample size increases. In more mathematical language, the measures of dispersion (standard deviation or variance) from the calculated statistic are expected to decrease as the sample size increases.
What is the meaning of Sampling distribution of the test statistic?
Given any sample size there are many samples of that size that can be drawn from the population. In the population is N and the sample size in n, then there are NCn, but remember that the population can be infinite. A test statistic is a value that is calculated from only the observations in a sample (no unknown parameters are estimated). The value of the test statistic will change from sample to sample. The sampling distribution of a test statistic is the probability distribution function for all the values that the test statistic can take across all possible samples.
Explain how to standardize a value in statistics?
The term effect size can refer to the value of a statistic calculated from a sample of data.
Is a sample a number describing some characteristic of a statistic?
No. A statistic is a number describing a characteristic of a sample.
A Numerical Measure from a Sample Such as a Sample Mean Is Known?

How does the sample size affect an experiment?
Sample size greatly reduces any error to randomness in a given sample. Each experiment requires a proper size of a sample. The better it is fitted to the experiment, the better is the result. For example, if you are trying to find out the study habits of students at your school of 1000 kids, a sample size of 50 would be sufficient. However, if you are trying to find out the study habits of students across the US, a sample size of at least several hundred-thousand would be required, preferably several million.
Why is standard deviation of a statistic called standard error?
The standard error is the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size.
