Calculating Mean Probability with Sampling Distributions | Sample Size 200

AI Thread Summary
The mean probability of 100 observations is .0422, and it is suggested that this value can be used as an estimate for a larger sample size of 200, with some statistical variations expected. The discussion emphasizes that while the mean will remain approximately the same regardless of sample size, the standard deviation will decrease as the sample size increases. Clarification on the type of experiment is necessary for more precise guidance. Understanding the relationship between sample size and mean probability is crucial for accurate statistical analysis. Overall, the mean probability can be extrapolated, but careful consideration of the sample context is essential.

The mean probability of 100 observations is .0422. If you are not given the data for a sample size of 200, how do you find the mean probability of this data using the mean probability you found from .0422?

thanks

Sorry, your question seems to be somewhat unclear to me. Is the .0422 the frequency of occurence of something observed? Well, then is should be the same (with some statistical variations of course) for most experiments.

If you are aiming at an entirely different point you should clarify the kind of experiment you have in mind, because most of the answers will depend on that.
 


The Mean will stay approximately the same no matter how large the size of the sample. However, the standard deviation will decrease if the sample gets larger

I was reading documentation about the soundness and completeness of logic formal systems. Consider the following $$\vdash_S \phi$$ where ##S## is the proof-system making part the formal system and ##\phi## is a wff (well formed formula) of the formal language. Note the blank on left of the turnstile symbol ##\vdash_S##, as far as I can tell it actually represents the empty set. So what does it mean ? I guess it actually means ##\phi## is a theorem of the formal system, i.e. there is a...
