This document discusses different sampling methods for various population studies. It recommends using multistage sampling to determine the portion of undernourished 5-year-olds in a village or to select maternity records, as the population needs to be divided into clusters and sub-clusters. For investigating the nutritional status of preschool children, it suggests using simple random sampling since each child has an equal chance of being selected. It also notes that cluster sampling was used to estimate immunization coverage in a province by sampling 7 children aged 12-23 months in 30 clusters, because the survey involved a large population divided into limited groups.

Q) Determine portion of undernourished 5years olds
in a village?
Multistage sampling since three stage design method is
needed to . Where the population is divided into clusters and sub-clusters until the desired
Q) Investigating nutritional status of preschool
children? Simple random Sampling as every pre-school student has a equal and known chance of being investigated. Q) Selecting maternity records for the study of previous abortions or durations of postnatal stay? Multistage Sampling, again using a three stage method where the population is divided into clusters and sub- clusters. Needs to be carried out in stages
Q) In estimation of immunization coverage in a
province, data on seven children aged 12-23 months in 30 clusters are used to determine proportion of fully immunized children in the province.Give reasons why cluster sampling is used in this survey Because it is on a limited group his sampling plan takes large populations into account
