【評論內容】The mean of the sampling distribution of the average score for the 36 students is equal to the mean of the distribution of the individual scores, which is 18.6. Therefore, the correct answer is (D) 18.6.It's important to note that the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the average score is not equal to the standard deviation of the distribution of individual scores. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is given by the formula:standard deviation of the sampling distribution = standard deviation of the population / √(sample size)In this case, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution would be 6.0 / √(36) = 1.6.
