Survey Design & Tools Pre-Training

What is a survey?

• A Statistical Analysis Technique

• A method of collecting data from a sample of individuals

• A type of qualitative research

• An observational Study

Why are surveys significant in Research?

• They provide a way to collect quantitative data

• They allow researchers to gain insights from a large population

• They help in understanding people's opinions, attitudes, and behaviors

• All of the above

What is a sample in survey research?

• The entire population being studied

• A subset of individuals selected from the population

• The data collected from a survey

• The research hypothesis

Which sampling technique involves randomly selecting individuals from the population without replacement?

• Simple Random Sampling

• Systematic Sampling

• Stratified Sampling

• Cluster Sampling

In Systematic Sampling, participants are selected:

• Randomly

• Based on specific characteristics

• According to their order in the population list

• Using predetermined quotas

Stratified Sampling involves dividing the population into:

• Homogeneous subgroups

• Heterogeneous subgroups

• Random clusters

• Sequential units

Cluster Sampling involves:

• Selecting individuals based on their characteristics

• Randomly selecting groups or clusters from the population

• Dividing the population into strata

• Systematically selecting every nth individual

Which one came First?

• 
• 

What is the primary objective of determining sample size in a survey?

• To reduce the cost of data collection

• To ensure that the sample is representative of the population

• To maximize the statistical power of the study

• To minimize response bias

Confidence intervals provide an estimate of:

• The variability within the sample

• The precision of the sample mean

• The likelihood of obtaining a certain result

• The range of values within which the population parameter is likely to lie
