RANDOM SAMPLING DISTRIBUTION
A probability
distribution of a statistic
obtained through a
large number of
samples drawn from a
specific population.
TYPES OF
RANDOM
SAMPLING
1. Simple Random Sampling
The simplest way of getting random sample where
each member of the population has an equal chance of
being chosen as the sample.
Example:
To choose the sample, arrange the
elements of the population in order, and
then use a computer or a scientific
calculator to generate as many random
numbers as required. The sample will be
composed of those elements which
correspond to the random numbers.
2. Stratified Random Sampling
This involves selecting a simple random sample from each of a given
number of subpopulations. Each subpopulation is called a stratum
(plural: strata),
Example:
If a study is taking senior citizens into
consideration, the population may need to
be subdivided into subgroups like 60-69
years old, 70-79 years old, etc. The sample
will be chosen from each subgroups.
3. Cluster Sampling
The population is first divided into separate groups called
clusters. Then, a simple random sample of clusters from the
available clusters in the population is selected.
Example:
If the population is composed of all the
senior citizens from Metro Manila, the
clusters could be senior citizens from the
different municipalities and cities in Metro
Manila.
Data is then gathered from selected
clusters, like 5 cities.
4. Systematic Random Sampling
This involves the random selection of one of the first 𝑘 elements in an ordered
population, and then the systematic selection of every 𝑘th element thereafter.
The value of 𝑘 is first calculated by dividing the population size by the sample
size.
Example:
Suppose there are 500 grade 5 students
and you need to select 50 students as your
sample.
Dividing the population size 500 by the
sample size 50, we get 10. That means,
every 10th student will be included in the
sample.
5. Multistage Sampling
Two or more probability techniques are combined. It
can be described as sampling within the sample.
Example:
If the population is composed of all the senior
citizens from Metro Manila, we can use clustered
sampling where the clusters are the
municipalities and cities in Metro manila.
Then from the selected clusters, we can use
stratified sampling and divide into different age
groups.
