Sampling & Estimation

Sampling Distribution:

Probability distribution of all possible sample statistics computed from a set of equal-size samples randomly drawn from the same population.The sampling distribution of the mean is the distribution of estimates the mean.

Standard Error of Sample Mean:

Standard error of the sample mean is the standard deviation of distribution of the sample mean.

● Point estimation:unbiasness,best,consistency.

● Confidence interval estimation:

Confidence interval:gives range of values the mean value will be between,with a given probability (say 90% or 95%).With known variance,formula for a confidence interval is:

Point estimate+/-(reliability factor×standard error)
