Sampling Distribution
• Is the distribution of possible values
of a statistic from all possible
samples of the same size from the
same population

proportion
Suppose we have a population of six
people: Alice, Ben, Charles, Denise,
Edward, & Frank
What is the proportion of females?
1/3
What is the parameter of interest in
this population? Proportion of females
Draw samples of two from this population.
How many different samples are possible?

Find the 15 different samples that are
possible & find the sample proportion of the
number of females in each sample.

Assumptions (Rules of Thumb)
• Sample size must be less than 10% of
the population (independence)
• Sample size must be large enough to
ensure a normal approximation can be
used.
np > 10 & n (1 – p) > 10
Why does the second assumption ensure
an approximate normal distribution?
Remember back to binomial distributions

at BHS wear contacts. In a
