Dice simulator �http: //www. stat. sc. edu/~west/javahtml/CLT. html �Let’s roll a single die a few times and see what happens �What do you think would happen if we rolled 2 dice? Would we expect the same distribution? �Now let’s try 3 dice and then 5 dice

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.

CLT Assumptions �Assumptions: Independence: sampled values must be independent Sample Size: sample size must

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

Which Normal Model to use? �The Normal Model depends on a mean and sd

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:

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?
