  • Statistics 101: Sampling Distributions.
    What happens if we take many samples from an unknown distribution, find the mean of each sample, and then create a histogram based on those sample means? We generate a very important distribution; a sampling distribution. Most of the time we do not know the population parameters (mean, standard deviation, etc.) so we have to estimate them. The sampling distribution helps us do that. Enjoy!

    Dear Brandon! I really want to thank you for all these statistics videos! I really enjoy them! I am a chemist working in a pharmaceutical company and am currently studying statistics to be prepared for a forthcoming statistics/bioequivalence seminar I'll be attending soon. Before I start studying each section in my statistics book, I watch the corresponding video of yours so as to catch the main concept and realize the principles! You are really helping me through!!! The only question that I have is that if your statistics videos have a specific order that they need to be watched. Thank you!

    I watched some of the Statistics 101 videos and liked all of them for the amount of knowledge they impart with simple explanation, examples and rich content, however I am bit lost what should be the sequence to watch these videos as there are almost more than 90 of them. I will appreciate if you can share the order one should undertake to cover this as a course in a well defined fashion. Thank you so much for these wonderful videos as they are really helping me a lot understand the statistics thoroughly.

    Amazing illustration of the Central limit Theorem! From Wikipedia (with my modifications):
    "Suppose that a sample is obtained containing 15 observations, each observation being randomly generated in a way that does not depend on the values of the other observations, and that the arithmetic average of the observed values is computed. If this procedure is performed repeatedly (9 times), the central limit theorem tells us that the computed values of the average will be distributed according to the normal distribution."

    Correct me if I am wrong, but any one sample S1 of size 15 does not necessarily have to be a normal distribution, however the distribution of sample means will be normal (CLT)

    How do you calculate the Expected Value in this example? The video that explained how to determine E(X) made sense to me, but it was specific to discrete variables, whereas these are ranges. Are you supposed to multiply the midpoint of each range by the corresponding probability for that range?

    Thanks for great videos. What I didnt understand , from given example x1_bar is - 3210.73, but why in the figure it is centered around 0 then ? Shouldnt it be centered around 3210.73 , because the normal distribution is centered around mean, somewhat totally confused in this.

    Hello sir,
    Thank you for the words of encouragement, they really mean a lot. I have one question, if you could help, I would be very grateful.
    When we say that the mean of the sampling distribution is 'mu', do we mean it is actually equal to 'mu', because there is a proof in my textbook that says so.
    However, my confusion arises when at around 14:47, you say it is an estimate at best. If you could clarify this, please?

    I know that technically histograms are gap-less, they are just easier to see with a little space, especially for people with visual impairments. Sometimes I outline them, sometimes I gap them to make them easier to see.

    I have a question and hope someone help me. After watch this video i am struggling in what is the point to realize hypothesis tests if we can take many samples of the same size, calculate the mean of the means and then take this as the Expected population mean?.
    As I know, the hypothesis test is performed only taking a sample of size n and not with many samples mean (or mean of means)
    Please help me!!!

  • @nishantduttmishra2903

    Hello sir, I have been struggling to understand the estimation for continuous quantities or continuous distribution. If I have, for example, an expression that gives me the value of lift of an aircraft. In that expression there is a quantity, some coefficient which is a property of that aircraft that I cannot find with analytical methods, and I want to estimate the value of that coefficient. I think maybe statistical inversion technique will be used in which we find the prior probability and most likelihood. And with them we find the posterior density distribution function. With that posterior density distribution we find the most probable value of coefficient given the lift, it is written something like P(C/L).
    "something like that", because this is what I have understood by myself. Can you help me out with this?

    Hey Mr. Foltz, could you please explain the 'right process of learning' in a few brief points? I go around bouncing from topic to topic in an non-orderly fashion and even though it yields results in tests, I don't feel like I learn a whole lot. Also, thanks for uploading a playlist on inferential statistics; it would be more help to see videos on VITAL STATISTICS as well as the way statistical experiments are designed and how they work (preferably with some clips of some experiments). I would also find a video on how an experiment to determine the quality of test subjects is related to statistics.

    • @BrandonFoltz
      @BrandonFoltz  9 років тому +1

      Hi Lipsa! As far as sequence goes, my playlist page is a good place to start: ua-cam.com/users/bcfoltzplaylists From a cognition perspective, I prefer to tie theory, math, and interpretation to "real" examples. Start with the familiar and then work from there. Experimental design and subject selection tend to be more humanities based whereas I focus on business related examples. However I do hope to branch out into those in the future. If you have any ideas please let me / us (fellow viewers) know.

    • @franbonfan
      @franbonfan 9 років тому

      ***** I love your videos, but I'd really like to know what the sequence is and that isn't very clear to me. For instance, should we continue with PL03 after this video? The thing is that PLs on your playlist page are not organized in an ordinal way, that is, from 1 on. I'm sorry to bother you with this question but I'm looking forward to watching the next one and share it with my classmates. Thanks !!!!

    • @vipcrownemoji2272
      @vipcrownemoji2272 8 років тому

      i think that sampling itself has basis there are many types of sampling probability sampling which has subtype and non probability sampling
      the best type of sampling is the random probability sampling because of its representativeness and precision then you will take samples and make a sample distribution and calculate the mean = x then you will test how this x is close to the m of the population I GUESS !!

    • @Magnificozas
      @Magnificozas 8 років тому

      could you make it with some kind of simple examples please?:)

    • @vipcrownemoji2272
      @vipcrownemoji2272 8 років тому

      Magnificozas in simple words we need to take many samples of the population and calculate their mean to make the representative o the population because if you took one sample your calculations will be biased and will not properly represent the population because there is always an error in sampling so we take many samples to reduce that error
