Even a very small treatment effect can be statistically sign
Even a very small treatment effect can be statistically significant if
A) the sample size is big and the sample variance is small
B) the sample size and the sample variance are both big
C) the sample size is small and the sample variance is big
Solution
Even a very small treatment effect can be statistically significant if
A) the sample size is big and the sample variance is small
B) the sample size and the sample variance are both big
C) the sample size is small and the sample variance is big
Note:
Large sample size and small variance leads to small standard error.
Smaller the standard error more often the significant results.
