  1. 2. A sampling method where the population is naturally organized in a sequential order. The starting point is randomly selected and then every nth member from there makes up the sample population.
  2. 4. A study method that requires at least two groups—the trial group and the control group. At the end of an allotted time period, the two groups are compared to determine if the treatment had an effect.
  3. 5. Consists of all people or items which we wish to describe or draw conclusions about.
  4. 10. States that the more trials you run in an experiment, the closer the experimental probability will get to the theoretical probability.
  5. 11. A measure of how spread out the data is (how much the data deviated from the mean).
  6. 12. A sampling method where members of the population self-select to be included in the sample. Filling out a survey and returning it is an example.
  7. 13. A sampling method where members of the population that share the same characteristic are grouped together. Then, members of that subgroup are randomly selected to make up the sample group.
  8. 14. study method requiring you to observe outcomes without interacting with any members of the sample. The conclusions cannot be generalized to a larger population.
  9. 16. Data that is bell shaped with the mean (average) at the center of the curve.
  10. 17. Not a mistake; accounts for the variation in results if the study or simulation were to be conducted multiple times under the same conditions.

  1. 1. Data that we gather from a sample of the population to make an inference about the parameter of interest for the population.
  2. 3. A form of random sampling where every member of the population has an equal chance of being selected to be part of the sample group. Having a list of all members of the population is vital. Drawing out of a hat, using a random number generator, or number table to select people are examples.
  3. 6. A sampling method where the population is divided into smaller groups that are representative of the entire population; then groups are randomly selected. Randomly selecting first period classes to make inference about the entire school would be an example.
  4. 7. A sampling method where members are randomly selected from a population that is readily available.
  5. 8. A small group of people or items taken from the larger population.
  6. 9. The population characteristic that we are interested in.
  7. 15. A study method where every member in the sample answers a set of questions
