  4. Sampling Distribution of a Mean Rolling dice simulation 10,000 individual rolls recorded Figure from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats

  5. Sampling Distribution of a Mean Roll 2 dice 10,000 times, average the 2 dice Figure from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats

  6. Sampling Distribution of a Mean Rolling 3 dice 10,000 times and averaging the 3 dice Figure from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats

  7. Sampling Distribution of a Mean Rolling 5 dice 10,000 times and averaging Figure from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats

  8. Sampling Distribution of a Mean Rolling 20 dice 10,000 times and averaging Once again, as sample size increases, Normal model appears Figure from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats

  9. Central Limit Theorem • The sampling distribution of any mean becomes more nearly Normal as the sample size grows. • The larger the sample, the better the approximation will be • Doesn’t matter what the shape of the distribution of the population is! (uniform, symmetric, skewed…) • Observations need to be independent and collected with randomization.

  10. CLT Assumptions • Assumptions: • Independence: sampled values must be independent • Sample Size: sample size must be large enough • Conditions: • Randomization • 10% Condition • Large enough sample

  11. Which Normal Model to use? The Normal Model depends on a mean and sd Sampling Distribution Model for a Mean When a random sample is drawn from any population with mean µ and standard deviation σ, its sample mean y has a sampling distribution with: Mean: µ Standard Deviation:

  12. Example: CEO compensation 800 CEO’s Mean (in thousands) = 10,307.31 SD (in thousands) = 17,964.62 Samples of size 50 were drawn with: Mean = 10,343.93 SD = 2,483.84 Samples of size 100 were drawn with: Mean = 10,329.94 SD = 1,779.18 According to CLT, what should theoretical mean and sd be? Example from DeVeaux, Intro to Stats
