Given that 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours that adults sleep at night is found to be (6.55,8.25) from a sleep lab experiment. Is the following statement correct?

95% of the confidence intervals we construct will give us the interval (6.55, 8.25)

Correct

Incorrect

Answer explanation

Incorrect because confidence intervals will vary due to natural variation in the samples collected.

Given that 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours that adults sleep at night is found to be (6.55,8.25) from a sleep lab experiment. Is the following statement correct?

There is a 95% probability that the mean number of hours that adults sleep is between 6.55 and 8.25 hours.

Correct

Incorrect

Answer explanation

Incorrect because the interval has already been collected. We cannot talk about probability after the event, the interval either contains the true mean or not.

Given that 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours that adults sleep at night is found to be (6.55,8.25) from a sleep lab experiment. Is the following statement correct?

If 100 random samples of the given size are picked and a 95% confidence interval is calculated from each sample, then the mean number of hours that adults sleep will be in approximately 95 of the resulting intervals.

Correct

Incorrect

Answer explanation

Incorrect because this is an interpretation of the confidence level, not the confidence interval.
