For a particular population a sample of n = 4 scores has an expected value of M = 10.  For the same population, a sample of n = 25 scores would have an expected value of µ = ____.

A distribution of scores has µ = 5=80, σ = 42, and is positively skewed. Consider the sampling distribution of the mean for samples of n = 36. a) Explain what a sampling distribution of the means (SDOM) is or how it is created. b) Then list for this sampling distribution the values for the mean and standard error of the mean, and name the shape. Mean = SE of Mean = Shape of Distribution =
