... If every possible sample of size n is selected from a population, more of the sample variances will be below than will be above the population variance. The reason for this bias is the probable absence of outliers in the sample. The variance is greatly affected by outliers. The smaller a sample is, ...

Confidence interval example
... Suppose we want to estimate the average weight of an adult male in Dekalb County, Georgia. We draw a random sample of 1,000 men from a population of 1,000,000 men and weigh them. We find that the average man in our sample weighs 180 pounds, and the standard deviation of the sample is 30 pounds. What ...
