A nurse practitioner working in a dermatology clinic is studying the efficacy of tretinoin in treating women’s post partum abdominal stretch marks. From a sample of 15 women, the mean reduction of stretch mark score is -0.33 with a sample standard deviation of 2.46. Describe what happens to the confidence intervals if analyses are conducted on progressively larger samples (e.g. at 30, 50, 100 participants).
