Central Limit Theorem: A sampling distribution of the mean is approximately normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large. This is true no matter what the population distribution is.

Key Takeaways A simple random sample takes a small, random portion of the entire population to represent the entire data set, where each member has an equal probability of being chosen ...

Serious polling requires careful data collection and careful adjustment. It doesn't mean much to say your poll is a "probability sample" when your nonresponse rate is 90 percent.

In this article, acceptance sampling plans are developed for the Marshall-Olkin extended exponential distribution percentiles when the life test is truncated at a pre-specified time. The minimum ...

Here, we use count data to investigate the relationship between distribution and abundance of passerines breeding in a sample of oases from southern Tunisia, and we provide a test of the sampling ...

A discrete distribution is a statistical probability distribution that represents the possible discrete values a variable can take.

A simple random sample is a subset of a statistical population where each member of the population is equally likely to be chosen.
