Researchers will conduct a study of the television-viewing habits of children. They will select a simple random sample of children and record the number of hours of television the children watch per week. The researchers will report the sample mean as a point estimate for the population mean. Which of the following statements is correct for the sample mean as a point estimator? (A) A sample of size 25 will produce more variability of the estimator than a sample of size 50.
(B) A sample of size 25 will produce less variability of the estimator than a sample of size 50.
(C) A sample of size 25 will produce a biased estimator, but a sample size of 50 will produce an unbiased estimator.
(D) A sample of size 25 will produce a more biased estimator than a sample of size 50.
(E) A sample of size 25 will produce a less biased estimator than a sample of size 50.
