SOLUTION: It's a True or False question.
Since there is more variability in sample means computed from smaller samples, we have more confidence in the resulting estimates and are less apt t

Question 617339: It's a True or False question.
Since there is more variability in sample means computed from smaller samples, we have more confidence in the resulting estimates and are less apt to reject the null hypothesis.
My Answer is False. But I'd appreciate if you can confirm my answer to be correct.
Thank You. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It's a True or False question.
Since there is more variability in sample means computed from smaller samples, we have more confidence in the resulting estimates and are less apt to reject the null hypothesis.
My Answer is False. But I'd appreciate if you can confirm my answer to be correct.
==================
If your confidence interval is wider, the chances of rejecting Ho are
smaller.
-----
More variability implies a larger standard deviation.
And larger standard deviation implies a wider confidence limit.
--
So more variability implies the chances of rejecting Ho are smaller.
