A psychologist has designed an index to measure the social perceptiveness of elementary school children. The index is based on ratings of a child's responses to questions about a set of photographs showing different social situations. A random sample of 16 elementary school children was chosen, and their index measurements were recorded. Assume that the index measure in the population is normally distributed. The 95% confidence interval created from this data is (56.29, 65.09). This interval indicates:
Select one or more:
a. The average index of elementary school children must be 60.69.
b. The standard deviation of the sample is about 10% smaller than the population standard deviation.
c. That if we take many samples from this population 95% of them will have a sample mean between 56.29 and 65.09.
d. 95% of all elementary school children in this district have indices between 56.29 and 65.09.
e. 4.40 is 95% of the true average of the index for all elementary school children.
f. We are 95% confident that the average index for all elementary school children is between 56.29 and 65.09.
