      As long as the sample size, , is at least 30N and we’re making inference about an the mean, then this assumption must be true (by Central Limit Theory plus some simulations), so all’s well if you always use large samples to make inferences about the mean.

      The sample size can be estimated from: 1. Statistical packages 2. Formulae and tables from standard books and 3. Nomograms (not used these days). The formulae for calculation of sample size for common study designs are given in the table 15. The most easy and preferred way of calculating sample size is by using an appropriate statistical package.

      Practical limitations will often be the chief determinant of the sample size. A sample size of between 50 and 100 should ensure that the results are sufficiently reliable for the majority of purposes, although there will be occasions when a sample as small as 30 may be sufficient. Samples smaller than this fall into the category of case studies

      Central Limit Theorem General Idea: Regardless of the population distribution model, as the sample size increases, the sample mean tends to be normally distributed around the population mean, and its standard deviation shrinks as n increases.

      One cannot decide on the sample size based on statistical formulas alone without considering the context. Hardly any statistics books written by statisticians (as opposed to those by social scientists and business professors) say that 30 is an adequate sample size or state that the central limit theorem endorses a sample size of 30 in survey

      For example, ‘30’ is a popular number. A stepped rule of thumb is a number that depends on a limited amount of information about the main study such as ... sample size by an appropriate adjustment factor (e.g. 0.5 for a study with only one group or 1.5 for a study with three groups, etc.).
