If the standard deviation for a population increases,the standard error for sample means from the population will also increase.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The standard error for sample means is calculated by dividing the standard deviation of the population by the square root of the sample size. Therefore, if the standard deviation of the population increases, the standard error will also increase as a larger standard deviation will lead to a less precise estimate of the population mean.
