    observations in a single sample) to "sampling variance" (variance of
    sampling distribution for the parameter).

    Parameters
    ----------
    samplevar_dataset : array_like
        Sample variance of the dataset (e.g., ``np.var(values)``).
    sample_size : int
        Sample size

    Returns
    -------
    varcope : array_like
        Sampling variance of the parameter

    Notes
    -----
    Sampling variance is sample variance divided by sample size.
