Card 6 / 10: Must the standard error always be at smaller than the standard deviation if there is more than one person in the group of interest? Why or why not?
Answer:
Yes, because the standard error is a function of the standard deviation. As long as the sample size is greater than 1, the standard error will always be smaller than the standard deviation.
