Bootstrapping involves repeatedly sampling with replacement. Below is a set of scores for a small sample (N = 6):
42, 48, 50, 41, 44, 45
a. Calculate the mean of this sample.
b. The following data set represents the samples that result after sampling with replacement from the original data set five times. Calculate the mean for each of these samples.
c. What are the minimum and maximum scores for these samples?
d. What does the variabilility of the multiple samples tell us about the potential variability of these scores in the population?
