The average scores of two samples taken from the same population are most likely to differ if
A) the samples are both small.
B) the standard deviations of the samples are both small.
C) the samples differ from each other in size.
D) the sample means are both similar to the sample medians.
Standard Deviations
A measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values, indicating how much the values differ from the mean of the set.
Sample Medians
Statistical measures representing the middle value in a sample data set, dividing it into two halves when arranged in ascending or descending order.
- Recognize how sample size and variability affect the likelihood of observing differences between sample means.
