ans equal design every item of the universe has an equal chance of
inclusion in the sample. It is so to say a lottery method in which
individuals units are picked of from the whole group not deliberately
but by some mechanical process. Here is blind chance also that
determined whether one item of the other is selected. The results
obtained from probability or Random sampling can be assured in
terms of probability i. e we can measure the errors of estimation of
the significance design over the deliberate sampling design.
HYPOTHESIS FRAMEWORK
• Hypotheses were formulated keeping the content and coverage of the
framed objectives. The formulated hypotheses are tested by
employing appropriate statistical tool. In hypothesis testing there are
two conflicting statements about the value of a population parameter.
