MAUREEN L. M. INTERMEDIATE MICROECONOMICS SAMPLING TECHNIQUES INTRODUCTION A sample is a unit or subset of selection from a larger population that is used in studying to draw conclusions regarding the whole population. A sample is usually selected from the population because it is not easy to study the entire population at once and the cost of doing so may be very high. The sample should be the best representation of the whole population to enable accurate outcomes and accurate

Sampling distribution The sampling distribution is the distribution of the values of a sample statistic computed for each possible sample that could be drawn from the target population under a specified sampling plan. Because many different samples could be drawn from a population of elements‚ the sample statistics derived from any one sample will likely not equal the population parameters. As a result‚ the sampling distribution supplies an approximation of the true value’s population parameters

Sampling Procedures There are many sampling procedures that have been developed to make sure that a sample really represents the target population. Simple Random Sampling In simple random sampling‚ every individual in the target population has an equal chance of being part of the sample. This requires two steps: 1. Obtain a complete list of the population. 2. Randomly select individuals from that list for the sample. In a study where the unit of analysis is the student‚ the researcher

populations Because it is impossible to count all the members of a large community‚ some form of sampling has to be used. The size of the sample depends on the area to be investigated‚ but can be shown on a graph as shown (right): Beyond this point‚ more samples (= more work) does not increase the reliability of the results. Ideal sample size AQA are very keen that you should know the importance of random sampling. This is essential to avoid bias. In fieldwork‚ this is done by: 1. Lay out two tapes at

The key is the use of statistically derived random sampling procedures. These ensure that survey results can be defended as statistically representative of the population. Surveys that do not follow these procedures can produce results that lead to misguided market research‚ strategic‚ or policy decisions. Any so-called "survey" in which no attempt is made to randomly select respondents‚ such as call-in readers’ or viewers’ "polls"‚ is likely to produce results that in no way reflect overall public

Sampling plan Our target population is the youth‚ from ages of 16 to 23. They represent the young adults and teenagers of the area’s population and are the most easily influenced individuals of the society. Our target population are college and high school students or recently graduated high school students. The data collection method used will be a self-administered questionnaire handed to the prospective respondents and collected right after the 10 minutes needed for the individual to complete

Statistical Sampling Statistical Sampling 1. The authors of the paper make assumptions about the U.S. population on three dimensions. What are the three dimensions? (Hint: The authors refer to these dimensions as "components of change.") Answer: The three dimensions would be migration‚ fertility‚ and mortality. 2. What is the expected population of the U.S. in 2050 given the new series (i.e.‚ based on 1998 data) based on the lowest series? The middle series? And the highest
