Question

Which of the following sample sizes for a large number of samples taken from a population will most likely result in the standard deviation of the sample means being the largest?

A. 125
B. 150
C. 100
D. 75

Answer 1

I think the sd of sample mean = sd of population /sqrt (sample size)

So smaller sample size gives larger sample sd
