When the population size is larger than the sample size, the sample statistic is still an estimate of the population parameter, but it may have a larger margin of error due to reduced representativeness. As the sample size increases relative to the population, the sample statistic generally becomes a more accurate reflection of the true population parameter. However, if the sample is randomly selected, the size difference alone does not inherently distort the sample statistic's validity; it's the sampling method that plays a crucial role in accuracy.
Yes.
A statistic and a sample have a relationship similar to that between a population and a parameter. A sample is a subset of a population, while a statistic is a numerical value calculated from that sample, used to estimate the corresponding population parameter. Essentially, a statistic provides insight into the characteristics of a larger group based on the analysis of a smaller, representative portion.
That only happens when you sample a population that is normally distributed. In that case, the question and its answer are quite circular.
perameter is a measure of population or universe, statistic is a measure of a sample data drawn from population
As the sample size increases, the standard deviation of the sample mean, also known as the standard error, tends to decrease. This is because larger samples provide more accurate estimates of the population mean, leading to less variability in sample means. However, the standard deviation of the population itself remains unchanged regardless of sample size. Ultimately, a larger sample size results in more reliable statistical inferences.
The relations depend on what measures. The sample mean is an unbiased estimate for the population mean, with maximum likelihood. The sample maximum is a lower bound for the population maximum.

A parameter describes a population. A statistic describes a sample.
Inferential statistics is concerned with making predictions or inferences about a population from observations and analyses of a sample. That is, we can take the results of an analysis using a sample and can generalize it to the larger population that the sample represents. In order to do this, however, it is imperative that the sample is representative of the group to which it is being generalized.
The sample standard error.
in statistics a sample is a subset of population..
The variance decreases with a larger sample so that the sample mean is likely to be closer to the population mean.

The larger the sample size, the more accurate the test results.
A statistic based on a sample is an estimate of some population characteristic. However, samples will differ and so the statistic - which is based on the sample - will take different values. The sampling distribution gives an indication of ho accurate the sample statistic is to its population counterpart.
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.
