    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    Parameter is a function of population values

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because a parameter is a numerical summary of a population, and it is typically calculated using population values. A parameter represents a characteristic of the entire population, such as the mean or standard deviation. In contrast, a statistic is a numerical summary of a sample, which represents only a subset of the population. Therefore, a parameter is indeed a function of population values.

    sample median is a function of sample observation and therefore it is an example of statistic

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    P(Type 1 error) = P ( Reject Ho / Ho is true)

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because a Type 1 error occurs when the null hypothesis (Ho) is true, but it is rejected based on the sample data. In other words, it is the probability of incorrectly rejecting a true null hypothesis. Therefore, the probability of Type 1 error is indeed P(Reject Ho / Ho is true).

    Bias = E(estimator)-parameter

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement "Bias = E(estimator)-parameter" is true. Bias refers to the difference between the expected value of an estimator and the true parameter being estimated. It measures the systematic error in the estimation process. Therefore, the given statement accurately represents the concept of bias.

    Rate this question:

  • 30. 

    Sample mean is a unbiased estimator of Population mean

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the sample mean is calculated by taking the average of a random sample from a population. Since the sample is random, it is expected to be representative of the population. Therefore, the sample mean provides an unbiased estimate of the population mean, meaning that on average, it will be equal to the true population mean.
