    Brandon, these videos are so great !!! You have saved me. I'm in Honor's Statistics at university, but I've NEVER had stats before so it has been very confusing trying to learn all of the terms and formulas. I didn't know when I registered for the class it would be so difficult. I'm a 98 and 99 math kind of gal, but this stuff is tough. With your help, I finally get it ! Thank you a million times over for the way you structure your videos. You are a God send.

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад +1

    If is a single population then the rule of thumb is a sample size between 30 and 100; that is all you need due to diminishing returns of adding more. Beyond that, I think about the smallest way I might slice my data. If I need to conduct analysis on: 1) women, 2)between 30-39 years old, 3) non-smokers, 4) from Bristol, England, then I need to sample large enough to get at least 30 meeting that characteristic. There is no real loss in an overly large sample beyond time and money.

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад

    Hi Aabi! The sampling distribution is a theoretical collection of many point estimators, in this case many sample means (a point estimator). So we could take the average height of 30 adult men and get a sample mean (point estimator for the entire population of men). Repeat (another point estimator). Repeat. Repeat. If we put all those means into their own distribution, we have the sampling distribution.
