True or False Statisticians have developed notation for keeping track of parameters and statistics.

True or False Statisticians have developed notation for keeping track of parameters and statistics. In general, Greek characters are used to represent population parameters. Statistics (estimates based on a sample) are represented by English letters. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 12

In which way(s) can bias (a tendency to produce an untrue value) enter a survey A. B. C. D. from taking a sample that is not representative of he population from asking questions that do not produce a true answer from statistics that are naturally biased All of the above © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 13

Internet polls suffer because people tend to respond to such surveys only if they

Internet polls suffer because people tend to respond to such surveys only if they have strong feelings about the results; otherwise, why bother? This is sometimes called A. measurement bias B. nonresponse bias C. voluntary-response bias D. natural bias © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 14

A more subtle form of bias happens when those being surveyed fail to answer

A more subtle form of bias happens when those being surveyed fail to answer a question or respond to a survey. This is called A. measurement bias B. nonresponse bias C. voluntary-response bias D. natural bias © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 15

When reading about a survey, it is important to know A. B. what percentage of people who were asked to participate actually did so whether the researchers chose people to participate in the survey or people themselves chose to participate C. the size of the population D.

True or False Statisticians evaluate the method used for a survey, not the outcome

True or False Statisticians evaluate the method used for a survey, not the outcome of a single survey. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 17

True or False No matter how many different samples we take, the value of

True or False No matter how many different samples we take, the value of p (the population proportion) changes from sample to sample, but the value of is always the same. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 18

True or False Bias is measured using the center of the sampling distribution: It

True or False Bias is measured using the center of the sampling distribution: It is the distance between the center and the population value. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 20

True or False Precision is measured using the standard deviation of the sampling distribution,

True or False Precision is measured using the standard deviation of the sampling distribution, which is called the standard error. When the standard error is small, we say the estimator is precise. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 21

True or False The precision of an estimator does not depend on the size

True or False The precision of an estimator does not depend on the size of the population; it depends only on the sample size. An estimator based on a sample size of 10 is just as precise in a population of 1000 people as in a population of a million. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 22

True or False Surveys based on larger sample sizes have larger standard error (Se)

True or False Surveys based on larger sample sizes have larger standard error (Se) and therefore less precision. Increasing the sample size decreases precision. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 23

Which of the following condition(s) on the sample must be met for applying the

Which of the following condition(s) on the sample must be met for applying the Central Limit Theorem for estimating proportions in a population? A. Random and Independent B. Large Sample C. Big Population D. All of the above © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 24

True or False If you don’t know the value of p, then you can

True or False If you don’t know the value of p, then you can substitute the value of to calculate the standard error. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 25

True or False If you don’t know the value of p, then you can

True or False If you don’t know the value of p, then you can substitute the value of to calculate the expected number of successes and failures, when checking that the sample size is large enough. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 26

The condition that the population must be “big” is satisfied if the population is

The condition that the population must be “big” is satisfied if the population is A. twice the sample size B. five times the sample size C. ten times the sample size D. twenty times the sample size © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 27

True or False If the conditions of a survey sample satisfy those required by

True or False If the conditions of a survey sample satisfy those required by the Cl. T, then the probability that a sample proportion will fall within two standard errors of the population value is 67%. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 28

True or False It is correct to say that a particular confidence interval has a 95% (or any other percent) chance of including the true population parameter. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 30

True or False It is correct to say that the process that produces intervals

True or False It is correct to say that the process that produces intervals captures the true population parameter with a 95% probability. A. B. True False © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 7 - 31
