Sampling Variability and
Sampling Distributions

mean (m) fat content of quarter-pound
hamburgers marketed by a national fast food
chain. To learn something about m, we could

which describes the long-run behavior
of sample statistic.
Recall that the sample
mean is a statistic
Statistic
• A number that that can be computed from
sample data
• Some statistics we will use include
x – sample mean
s – standard deviation
p – sample proportion
This variability is
called sampling
variability
• The observed value of the statistic
depends on the particular sample selected
from the population and it will vary from
sample to sample.
The campus of Wolf City College
has a fish pond. Suppose there
are 20 fish in the pond. The
lengths of the fish (in inches)
are given below:

There are 1140 (20C3) different possible samples
of size 3 from this population. If we were to
catch all those different samples and calculate
the mean length of each sample, we would have a
distribution of all possible x.
This would be the sampling distribution of x.
Sampling Distributions of x
• The distribution that would be formed
by considering the value of a sample
statistic for every possible different
sample of a given size from a
population.
In this case, the sample
statistic is the sample
mean x.

Note that in the
previous fish pond
examples this standard
deviation formula was
not correct because
the sample sizes were
more than 10% of the
population.
This rule is exact if the population is infinite, and is
approximately correct if the population is finite and
no more than 10% of the population is included in
the sample

When the population distribution is

also normal for any sample size n.
The paper “Is the Overtime Period in an NHL Game Long
Enough?” (American Statistician, 2008) gave data on the
time (in minutes) from the start of the game to the
first goal scored for the 281 regular season games from
the 2005-2006 season that went into overtime. The
density histogram for the data is shown below.
Let’s consider these 281 values as
a population. The distribution is
strongly positively skewed with
mean m = 13 minutes and with a
median of 10Using

A soft-drink bottler claims that, on average,
cans contain 12 oz of soda. Let x denote the
actual volume of soda in a randomly selected can.
Suppose that x is normally distributed with
s = .16 oz. Sixteen cans are randomly selected,
and the soda volume is determined for each one.
Let x = the resulting sample mean soda.
If the bottler’s claim is correct, then the

A hot dog manufacturer asserts that one of its
brands of hot dogs has a average fat content of 18
grams per hot dog with standard deviation of 1
gram. Consumers of this brand would probably not
be disturbed if the mean was less than 18 grams,
but would be unhappy if it exceeded 18 grams. An
independent testing organization is asked to
analyze a random sample of 36 hot dogs. Suppose
the resulting sample mean is 18.4 grams. Does this

The development of viral hepatitis after a blood
transfusion can cause serious complications for
a patient. The article “Lack of Awareness
Results in Poor Autologous Blood Transfusions” (Health
Care Management, May 15, 2003) reported that
hepatitis occurs in 7% of patients who receive blood
transfusions during heart surgery. We will simulate
sampling from a population of blood recipients.
We will generate 500 samples of each of the following
sample sizes: n = 10, n = 25, n = 50, n = 100 and
compute the proportion of people who contract
hepatitis for each sample.

Rule 3: When n is large and p is not too
near 0 or 1, the sampling distribution of p
is approximately normal.
The farther the value of p is from 0.5, the larger n must
be for the sampling distribution of p to be approximately
normal.
A conservative rule of thumb:
If np > 10 and n (1 – p) > 10, then a normal
distribution provides a reasonable
approximation to the sampling distribution of p.
