Statistical Inference
Data generated from random sampling or
randomized comparative experiments
Do a statistical analysis on the sample data
Using the laws of probability to answer the
question What would happen if we did this
very many times?
Statistical Inference:
Using the sample to infer something about
the population based on the above
Reasoning rests on asking How often
would this method give a correct answer if
I used it very many times?

The sampling distribution of the sample mean does not
necessarily look like the population distribution.

Each of these
distributions looks
somewhat like the
parent population
distribution (i.e., the
distribution being
sampled from), but
none look exactly like
it.
They all look different
from each other as
well.

Conclusion: The
distribution of
measurements in a
large sample looks
like the distribution in
the parent population.

of Large Numbers)
