Next >

All of the following statements regarding the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of a sample proportion are true EXCEPT:

A

The standard deviation for the sample proportion is given by $$\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$$, assuming a sufficiently large sample.

B

For the normal approximation to hold, both $$np$$ and $$n(1-p)$$ should be at least 10.

C

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution for sample proportions is independent of the sample size.

D

Increasing the sample size decreases the standard error of the sample proportion.
