Interpret the 68% confidence interval.
The 2006 GSS asked respondents how many siblings they have. The mean number of siblings was 3.76 with a standard deviation of 3.178. N = 2,988.
Sixty-eight percent of respondents have between 3.702 and 3.818 siblings. There is a 68% probability of the mean for another sample falling within these bounds. We are 68% confident that the average number of siblings in the population is between 3.702 and 3.818.
