If other factors are held constant,as the sample variance increases,the estimated standard error also increases.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is because the standard error is calculated as the square root of the sample variance divided by the sample size. As the sample variance increases, the numerator of this equation increases. This in turn causes the standard error to increase, unless the sample size is also increased to compensate for the larger variance.

If Other Factors Are Held Constant,as the Sample Variance Increases,the
