Sampling Distribution of Proportions
Sampling Distribution of Means
(1) Mean of the Sampling Distribution:
(1) Mean of the Sampling Distribution:

β€’
If p-hat is an unbiased estimator of p
(which we assume it is…)
πœ‡π‘Μ‚ = 𝜌
(2) Spread/Variability of Sampling Distribution:
β€’
If x-bar is an unbiased estimator of p
(which we assume it is…)
β€’
πœ‡π‘₯Μ… = πœ‡
(2) Spread/Variability of Sampling Distribution:
β€’
The larger the sample size, the smaller
the standard deviation of the sampling
distribution (large sample size = less
variability)
β€’
The larger the sample size, the smaller
the standard deviation of the sampling
distribution (large sample size = less
variability)

IF the population is at least 10 times the
sample size…..

IF the population is at least 10 times the
sample size…..

(3) Shape of the Sampling Distribution:
β€’
IF the population is Normally
distributed, then the Sampling
distribution is Normally distributed.

β€’
IF the sample size is large enough (n𝜌 β‰₯
10 and n(1-𝜌) β‰₯ 10) The overall shape of
the distribution is approximately
normal.

(3) Shape of Sampling Distribution:

IF the population is Normally
distributed, then the Sampling
distribution is Normally distributed.
β€’
OR…
β€’
IF the sample size is large enough
(depends on shape of population, but
generally if n β‰₯ 30) the overall shape of
the distribution is approximately
normal due to the central limit
theorem.
