Sampling distributions
To explain:Whether the given statement is correct or not

2021-02-01
Given information:
The given statement is,
"if \overline{x} is the mean of a large (n > 30) simple random from a population with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma , then \overline{x} is approximately normal with \sigma_{\overline{x}} = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}".
The central limit theorem is one of the important concepts of the large sample theory.
According to the central limit theorem, for a sufficiently large sample size, the sampling distributions of the mean tend to be normal distribution, irrespective of the distribution of the population.Generally, a sample size more than 30 is considered a large sample.
The sampling distribution of the sample mean bar x for the large samples follows normal distribution with mean and variance $$\frac{\sigma^{2}}{n}$$ , where mu is the population mean, n is the sample size and $$\sigma^{2}$$ is the population variance, that is,
$$\overline{x}sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$$
$$\overline{x}sim N(\mu,\sigma_{\overline{x}}$$
Thus, the provided statement is true.

Explain the statement ‘The main priority with sampling distributions is to get across the idea that estimates and other statistics change every time we do a new study’.
The correct statement which is incorrect from the options about the sampling distribution of the sample mean
(a) the standard deviation of the sampling distribution will decrease as the sample size increases,
(b) the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is a measure of the variability of the sample mean among repeated samples,
(c) the sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the true population mean,
(d) the sampling distribution shows how the sample mean will vary in repeated samples,
(e) the sampling distributions shows how the sample was distributed around the sample mean.
