2. Senturia et al. (1994) describe a survey taken to study how many children have access to guns in their households. Questionnaires were distributed to all parents who attended selected clinics in the Chicago area during a one-week period for well or sick child visits. Suppose that the quantity of interest is percentage of the households with guns. Describe why this is a cluster sample. What is the psu? The ssu? Is it a one-stage or two-stage cluster sample? How would you estimate the percentage

Random sampling is the purest form of probability sampling. Each member of the population has an equal and known chance of being selected. When there are very large populations‚ it is often difficult or impossible to identify every member of the population‚ so the pool of available subjects becomes biased. Systematic sampling is often used instead of random sampling. It is also called an Nth name selection technique. After the required sample size has been calculated‚ every Nth record is selected

6. METHODOLOGY 6.1 Emphasis on Qualitative Research Methods The research described in this document is based solely on qualitative research methods. This permits (indeed requires) a flexible and iterative approach. During data gathering the choice and design of methods are constantly modified‚ based on ongoing analysis. This allows investigation of important new issues and questions as they arise‚ and allows the investigators to drop unproductive areas of research from the original research plan

Concept and basics of probability sampling methods One of the most important issues in researches is selecting an appropriate sample. Among sampling methods‚ probability sample are of much importance since most statistical tests fit on to this type of sampling method. Representativeness and generalize-ability will be achieved well with probable samples from a population‚ although the matter of low feasibility of a probable sampling method or high cost‚ don’t allow us to use it and shift us to the

Acceptance Sampling Acceptance sampling has traditionally been a partner of statistical process control and control charts in the area of statistical quality control. Products are shipped around in batches or lots‚ and the idea behind acceptance sampling is that a batch can be declared to be satisfactory or unsatisfactory on the basis of the number of defective items found within a random sample of items from the batch. Thus acceptance sampling provides a general check on the “quality” of the items
