Sampling Distribution of Means

Population and Sample


A population is the set of all items or
individuals of interest.
Examples: All registered voters
Cell phones manufactured today
Sales receipts for August

A sample is a subset of the population.


Examples: 1200 voters selected at random for a
survey
A few cell phones selected for testing
Random receipts selected for audit

Inferential Statistics
Inferential statistics is concerned with
drawing conclusions and/or making decisions
concerning a population based only on
sample data.

Population inferences can be made...
...by selecting a representative sample from the
population
Sampling Distribution of Means

Why Sample?!

 Researchers use sampling if taking a


census of the entire population is
impractical.
 It is less time-consuming and less
costly than a census.
 It is possible that data from the sample
can be used to estimate corresponding
population measures.

Sampling Distribution of Means

Types of Sampling
Simple random sampling – every
element of the population has the same
probability of being selected for
inclusion in the sample.
Some simple random sampling
techniques:
1. Lottery or drawing – with or without
replacement
2. Using Random Numbers

Types of Sampling

Systematic random sampling


– a list of randomly-arranged
elements of the population is
used as a sampling frame,
and the elements to be
included in the sample are
selected by skipping
through the list at regular
intervals. http://worldartsme.com/images/holiday-shopping-list-clipart-1.jpg

Types of Sampling

Stratified random sampling


– the population is
partitioned into
several subgroups
or strata, then
samples are
randomly selected
separately from https://faculty.elgin.edu/dkernler/statistics/ch01/images/strata-sample.gif

Types of Sampling

Cluster or area sampling


– the population is
broken into small
groups or clusters,
then some of the
clusters are
randomly selected.

Cluster vs stratified sampling
The difference between cluster sampling and
stratified sampling is that the sample consists of
elements from the selected clusters only, while in
stratified sampling, the sample comes from all the
strata.

Parameter & Statistic


A parameter is a descriptive
measure that describes a
Apopulation.
statistic is a descriptive measure
that describes a sample.
Usually, parameters are denoted by lower-
case GREEK letters (e.g.  or ), while
statistics use lower-case ROMAN letter (e.g. x
and s).

Sampling Distributions
A sampling distribution is a probability
distribution of all of the possible values of a
statistic for a given sample size selected from
a population.

Sampling Distribution of the Mean


A sampling distribution of
sample means is a frequency
distribution using the means
computed from all possible
random samples of a specific
size taken from a population.
http://www.philender.com/courses/intro/notes2/sam.gif

The probability distribution of the sample


means is also called the sampling distribution
of the sample means, with the sample mean as
the random variable.
