... 11. I am interested in estimating the average enrolment at all Canadian universities and colleges. I have reason to believe that enrolment may differ significantly for each province. Because of this belief, I draw simple random sample of 2 universities/colleges from each of the 10 provinces. I then ...

1 against all odds episode 22 – “sampling distributions”
... But when we directly compare the population distribution to our sampling distribution we can see that while the center is the same, the spread of the sampling distribution is much less. In fact, sample means are always less variable than individuals. That makes sense. A random sample should include ...

Independence of the Sample Mean and Variance for Normal
... Although (a) and (b) are shown straightforwardly by the transformations of normal random variables, statistics textbooks show (c) separately by relying on the condition for the independence of two quadratic forms or a linear and a quadratic form (e.g. Theorem 4.17 in Graybill, 1961; Theorem 2 of Cha ...
