If I increase my sample size (and doing so does not inject any outliers into the data), the confidence intervals around any mean estimates will:

If we change a 95% confidence interval estimate to a 99% confidence interval estimate, we can expect: - The size of the confidence interval to remain the same. - The size of the confidence interval to decrease. - The sample size to increase. - The size of the confidence interval to increase.
