is the probability of success, then the mean value, or expectation, of X is E[X]
= p, and its variance is Var[X] = p(1-p).
If an experiment involving X is repeated n times, and k successful outcomes
are recorded, then an estimate of p is given by p’= k/n, while the standard
error of p’ is
σ
p’
=
√
(p
⋅
(1-p)/n) . In practice, the sample estimate for p, i.e., p’
replaces p in the standard error formula.
For a large sample size, n>30, and n
⋅
p > 5 and n
⋅
(1-p)>5, the sampling
distribution is very nearly normal. Therefore, the 100(1-
α
) % central two-sided
confidence interval for the population mean p is (p’+z
α
/2
⋅σ
p’
, p’+z
α

).
For a small sample (n<30), the interval can be estimated as (p’-t

Sampling distribution of differences and sums of statistics
Let S
1
and S
2
be independent statistics from two populations based on
samples of sizes n
1
and n
2
, respectively. Also, let the respective means and
standard errors of the sampling distributions of those statistics be
µ
S1
and
µ
S2
,
and
σ
S1
and
σ
S2
, respectively. The differences between the statistics from the
two populations, S

-S
2
, have a sampling distribution with mean

, and standard error
σ

S2
= (

. Also, the sum of the statistics
T

has a mean
µ

µ
S2
, and standard error
σ

Estimators for the mean and standard deviation of the difference and sum of
