Statistics - Parameter

What is sampling in statistics?

• Sampling is the process of selecting a subset of individuals or observations from a larger population to gather information and make inferences about the population as a whole.

• Sampling is the process of selecting a sample that is biased towards a specific characteristic of the population.

• Sampling is the process of selecting the entire population for data collection.

• Sampling is the process of selecting a random sample from a population without any specific criteria.

What is the purpose of sampling in statistical analysis?

• Sampling helps to ensure that the statistical analysis is accurate.

• Sampling is used to eliminate outliers from the data analysis.

• Sampling is used to collect data from the entire population.

• The purpose of sampling in statistical analysis is to make inferences about a population based on a subset of observations or individuals.

What is stratified sampling?

• Sampling technique where the population is divided into heterogeneous subgroups (strata) and a random sample is taken from each stratum.

• Sampling technique where the population is divided into clusters and a random sample is taken from each cluster.

• Sampling technique where the population is divided into homogeneous subgroups (strata) and a systematic sample is taken from each stratum.

• Sampling technique where the population is divided into homogeneous subgroups (strata) and a random sample is taken from each stratum.

What is cluster sampling?

• Cluster sampling is a sampling technique where the population is divided into clusters, and a random sample of clusters is selected. Then, all individuals within the selected clusters are included in the sample.

• Cluster sampling is a sampling technique where the population is divided into clusters, and a random sample of individuals from each cluster is selected.

• Cluster sampling is a sampling technique where the population is divided into clusters, and a random sample of individuals within each cluster is selected.

• Cluster sampling is a sampling technique where the population is divided into clusters, and a random sample of clusters is excluded from the sample.

What is systematic sampling?

• Systematic sampling is a random sampling method where elements are selected without any specific pattern.

• Systematic sampling is a sampling method where elements are selected based on their popularity or frequency in the population.

• Systematic sampling is a sampling method where elements are selected based on their proximity to a specific location in the population.

• Systematic sampling is a statistical sampling method where elements are selected at regular intervals from a population.

What is convenience sampling?

• Sampling technique based on selecting participants from a diverse range of backgrounds.

• Non-probability sampling technique based on easy accessibility or availability of participants.

• Sampling technique based on selecting participants from a specific population.

• Sampling technique based on random selection of participants.

What is the difference between population and sample in statistics?

• Population is a random selection, while sample is a systematic selection.

• Population is used for qualitative data, while sample is used for quantitative data.

• Population is a smaller group, while sample is a larger group.

• Population is the entire group, while sample is a subset of the population.

Why is it important to use proper sampling techniques in statistics?

• To reduce bias and increase the reliability and validity of the statistical analysis.

• To increase bias and decrease the reliability and validity of the statistical analysis.

• To save time and effort in the statistical analysis.

• To make the statistical analysis more complicated.
