As the sample size increases the standard deviation of the sampling distribution increases?

No.


What are the differences between probability sampling and non probability sampling?

In a probability sample, each unit has the same probability of being included in the sample. Equivalently, given a sample size, each sample of that size from the population has the same probability of being selected. This is not true for non-probability sampling.


What difference between Statistical Sampling and non-statistical sampling?

Statistical sampling is an objective approach using probability to make an inference about the population. The method will determine the sample size and the selection criteria of the sample. The reliability or confidence level of this type of sampling relates to the number of times per 100 the sample will represent the larger population. Non-statistical sampling relies on judgment to determine the sampling method,the sample size,and the selection items in the sample.


What are the Difference between Probabilistic sampling methods and non probabilistic sampling methods?

With a probabilistic method, each member of the population has the same probability of being selected for the sample. Equivalently, given a sample size, every sample of that size has the same probability of being the sample which is selected. With such a sample it is easier to find an unbiased estimate of common statistical measures. None of this is true for non-probabilistic sampling.


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

No, it is not.

What are the effects of sample size on sampling error?

What is a sampling ratio?

It is the ratio between the size of the sample and the size of the population.

In basic statistics what is sample size and effective sample size?

sample size refers to the collection of data by only a selected size of te population through the process of sample surveys and sampling methods used in collecting data.

How does sample size affect the size of your standard error?

The standard error should decrease as the sample size increases. For larger samples, the standard error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size.The standard error should decrease as the sample size increases.

State how to minimize error in sampling?

1). Variation in sample eg. Age, Geographic etc. 2). Appropriate sample size


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.
