Question

Run the simulation using n = 30 and N = 10 for a uniform, a bell-shaped, and a skewed distribution.


§ Identify the mean of the sampling distribution of sample means for each distribution.

§ Evaluate if the results are what you expected for each distribution.



Run the simulation again using n = 30 and N = 1000 for a skewed distribution.


§ Describe the shape of the distribution of sample means.

Answer 1

Inadequate or unclear data.

What are you running the simulation on?

If n = number of scores, what is N?

Will the skew be positive (tail to the right) or negative (tail to the left)?

Answer 2

N = 6
