We are accustomed to working with a normal population (bell curve, normal curve), but there are some cases in which a sample is naturally skewed. A skewed population generally means that there are different groups/experiences at different points in the scale. (we went through the example of student attitudes about the value of a degree in class). Assume that you had reason to believe a population parameter, like household income, was skewed as you answer the following questions: What sampling technique would you recommend for a skewed population? Which parameter is presumed to be more stable in a skewed population - mean or median? Define mean and median and explain your response to item B
