SAMPLING AND

SAMPLING
DISTRIBUTION
Random Sampling
Random Sampling is a method of selecting a sample (random sample)
from a statistical population. It is also a method in which measurements
from a population is a subset of a population selected in a manner such
that every sample of size from the population has an equal chance of
being selected.
TYPES OF RANDOM
SAMPLING
TYPES OF RANDOM SAMPLING

SIMPLE RANDOM
SAMPLING
Simple Random Sampling is a sampling technique in which every
element of the population has the same probability of being selected for
inclusion in the sample.
TYPES OF RANDOM SAMPLING

Systematic Sampling
Systematic Sampling is a random sampling technique in which a list of
elements of the population is used as a sampling frame, and the
elements to be included in the desired sample are selected by skipping
through the list at regular intervals.
TYPES OF RANDOM SAMPLING

Stratified Sampling
Stratified Sampling is a random sampling technique in which the
population is first divided into strata and then samples are randomly
selected separately from each stratum.
TYPES OF RANDOM SAMPLING

cluster or area sampling


Cluster or Area Sampling is a random sampling technique in which the entire
population is broken into small groups, or clusters, and then, some of the
clusters are randomly selected. The data from the randomly selected clusters
are the ones that are analyzed. The difference of cluster sampling from a
stratified sampling is that the sample consists of elements from the selected
clusters only while in stratified sampling, the sample consists of elements from
all the strata.
definition of terms
Parameter: is a measure that describes a population. Parameters are
usually denoted by Greek letters. Population mean μ, population
variance, and population standard deviation o are examples of
parameters.
Statistic: is a measure that describes a sample. Statistics are usually
denoted by Roman letters. Examples of statistics are mean, sample
variance s², and sample standard deviation s.
Sampling Distribution: is the probability distribution that describes the
probability for each mean of all samples with the same sample size n.
