Sampling Distributions

Lecture GoalsAfter completing this chapter, you should be
able to: • Define the concept of sampling error
• Determine the mean and standard deviation for the sampling distribution of the sample mean, x
• Describe the Central Limit Theorem and its importance
• Apply sampling distributions for x

Sampling Error
• Sample Statistics are used to estimate Population Parameters
ex: X is an estimate of the population mean, μ
• Problems: – Different samples provide different estimates of
the population parameter
– Sample results have potential variability, thus sampling error exits
![Page 4: Lecture 5 Introduction to Sampling Distributions.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081513/5a4d1b117f8b9ab05998f9a7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Calculating Sampling Error• Sampling Error:
The difference between a value (a statistic) computed from a sample and the corresponding value (a parameter) computed from a population
Example: (for the mean)
where: μ - xError Sampling

Example
If the population mean is μ = 98.6 degrees and a sample of n = 5 temperatures yields a sample mean of = 99.2 degrees, then the sampling error is

Sampling Errors
• Different samples will yield different sampling errors
• The sampling error may be positive or negative ( may be greater than or less than μ)
• The expected sampling error decreases as the sample size increases

Sampling Distribution
• A sampling distribution is a distribution of the possible values of a statistic for a given size sample selected from a population
![Page 9: Lecture 5 Introduction to Sampling Distributions.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081513/5a4d1b117f8b9ab05998f9a7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Developing a Sampling Distribution
• Assume there is a population …• Population size N=4
• Random variable, x,is age of individuals
• Values of x: 18, 20,

If the Population is not Normal
We can apply the Central Limit Theorem:
Even if the population is not normal,…sample means from the population will be
approximately normal as long as the sample size is large enough
…and the sampling distribution will have

Central Limit Theorem
As the sample size gets large enough…
the sampling distribution becomes almost normal regardless of shape of population

How Large is Large Enough?
• For most distributions, n > 30 will give a sampling distribution that is nearly normal
• For fairly symmetric distributions, n > 15
• For normal population distributions, the sampling distribution of the mean is always normally distributed
![Page 23: Lecture 5 Introduction to Sampling Distributions.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081513/5a4d1b117f8b9ab05998f9a7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Example
• Suppose a population has mean μ = 8 and standard deviation σ = 3. Suppose a random sample of size n = 36 is selected.
• What is the probability that the sample mean is between 7.8 and 8.2?
![Page 24: Lecture 5 Introduction to Sampling Distributions.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081513/5a4d1b117f8b9ab05998f9a7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
ExampleSolution:
• Even if the population is not normally distributed, the central limit theorem can be used (n > 30)
• … so the sampling distribution of is approximately normal
• … with mean = 8
• …and standard deviation
