What is a sampling distribution?

Back

A sampling distribution is the probability distribution of a statistic (like the sample mean) obtained from a large number of samples drawn from a specific population.

Front

What does the Central Limit Theorem state?

Back

The Central Limit Theorem states that the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large, regardless of the population's distribution.

What is the relationship between sample size and standard error?

Back

As the sample size increases, the standard error decreases.
