    Applied Research and Statistics QNT561 Research and Sampling Designs Shindeera Robinson June 21‚ 2010 Chapter 8 21. What is sampling error? Could the value of the sampling error be zero? If it were zero‚ what would this mean? Sampling error is the difference between the statistic estimated from a sample and the true population statistic. While we would expect the sampling error to not be zero‚ it is not impossible. For example if you were evaluating the ethnicities of a population and everyone

    is set up as the statistical distribution for testing hypothesis about a population‚ the z-tests are used. There are 4 types of z test that will be taken up. Lesson 1: z-test of Hypothesis about a Population Mean Before the z-one population test of hypothesis about a population mean is applied‚ certain assumptions must be met: (1) The (population standard deviation) is known. (2) The data are either interval or ratio. (3) Only one group is specified. (4) The

    population. The sample mean (x) shows the average value calculated from measurements of a sample. Its main characteristics are: 1. The average of all sample means should equal to the true population mean (µ) 2. The standard deviation shows dispersion of sample means around the population mean. It is known as the standard error of the mean 3. The sampling distribution of the mean is a normal distribution. Uses: The sampling distribution of the means is commonly analysed

    of How is this Done? If the difference between our hypothesized value and the sample value is small‚ then it is more likely that our hypothesized value of the mean is correct. The larger the difference the smaller the probability that the hypothesized value is correct. In practice however very rarely is the difference between the sample mean and the hypothesized population value larger enough or small enough for us to be able to accept or reject the hypothesis prima-facie. We cannot accept or reject
