RANDOM SAMPLING

Group 5
WHAT IS SAMPLING?
Sampling refers to the process of selecting a subset
of individuals from a larger group, called a
population. This subset, known as the sample, is
then used to represent the characteristics of the
entire population.
RANDOM SAMPLING
WHAT IS RANDOM SAMPLING?

Random sampling is a probability-based

sampling technique where every member of
a population has an equal chance of being
selected for the sample.
TYPES OF RANDOM
SAMPLING
Cluster Sampling
Simple Random Sampling

Stratified Random sampling

WHY USE RANDOM
SAMPLING?
Reduced Bias: By giving everyone an equal chance of selection,
random sampling minimizes the risk of bias that can occur when
certain groups are more likely to be chosen than others. This
ensures the sample reflects the true characteristics of the
population.
1. SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING
a simplest type of Random Sampling
It's a straightforward method where
every member of a population has an
equal probability of being selected for the
sample.
STRATIFIED RANDOM
SAMPLING It involves dividing the population into subgroups, called strata, based on
shared characteristics like age, gender, income, or education level.

These strata should be mutually exclusive (no overlap) and

collectively exhaustive (all members of the population belong to one
stratum).
EXAMPLE :

Look at page 59 table 3

CLUSTER SAMPLING

Cluster sampling is a probability sampling

technique used when dealing with large or
geographically dispersed populations.
CLUSTER SAMPLING

Devide the population into groups (cluster)

obtain a simple random sample of so many
clusters from all possible clusters
Obtain data on every sampling unit in each of
the randomly selected clusters.
EXAMPLE :
Look at page 60 table 3.2
SYSTEMATIC SAMPLING

It is a method of selecting every nthelement

of the population.
After the size of the sample has been
determined, the selection of the sample
follows .
EXAMPLE :
Your target population is 300 shs students.

first write thier Name 1-300

second Identify the Nth element by using i= N/n
i= interval
N= the population
n= sample size
EXAMPLE :
N = 300
n = 60
Means the position of your sample size is in
i= 300/60
every 5th term, means
=5
in the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th........ =60(sample size)
