Unit 3 Review

The President divides the country into 10 similar regions and sends out his team to survey everyone in one of the regions chosen randomly. What sampling procedure has he employed?

• Cluster Sampling

• Multistage Sampling

• Systematic Sampling

• Convenience Sampling

Cluster Sampling is:

• A sampling technique that divides a population into groups; then randomly selected to make up your sample total

• a statistical method that involves taking samples in stages, using smaller groups at each stage

• a probability sampling method in which members of a population are selected at a regular interval are determined in advanced

• method of collecting samples by taking samples that are conveniently located around a location

Multistage Sampling is:

• A sampling technique that divides a population into groups; then randomly selected to make up your sample total

• a statistical method that involves taking samples in stages, using smaller groups at each stage

• a probability sampling method in which members of a population are selected at a regular interval are determined in advanced

• method of collecting samples by taking samples that are conveniently located around a location
