Types of SamplesTypes of Samples
Simple random
Systematic
Every person has an equal chance of being selected. Best when roster of the population exists.
Randomly enter a stream of elements and sample every kth element. Best when elements are randomly ordered, no cyclic variation.
Probability, or Scientific, Samples: Each element to be sampled has a known (or calculable) chance of being selected.

Types of SamplesTypes of Samples
Stratified
Cluster
Randomly sample elements from every layer, or stratum, of the population. Best when elements within strata are homogeneous.
Randomly sample elements within some of the strata. Best when elements within strata are heterogeneous.
Probability, or Scientific, Samples: Each element to be sampled has a known (or calculable) chance of being selected.

Types of SamplesTypes of Samples
Convenience
Quota
Elements are sampled because of ease and availability.
Elements are sampled, but not randomly, from every layer, or stratum, of the population.
Nonprobability Samples: Not every element has a chance to be sampled. Selection process usually involves subjectivity.

Types of SamplesTypes of Samples
Purposive
Judgment
Elements are sampled because they are atypical, not representative of the population.
Elements are sampled because the researcher believes the members are representative of the population.
Nonprobability Samples: Not every element has a chance to be sampled. Selection process usually involves subjectivity.

Distribution of the MeanDistribution of the Mean
When the population is normally distributed Shape: Regardless of sample size, the
distribution of sample means will be normally distributed.
Center: The mean of the distribution of sample means is the mean of the population. Sample size does not affect the center of the distribution.
Spread: The standard deviation of the distribution of sample means, or the standard error, is
. nx

Distribution of the MeanDistribution of the Mean
When the population is not normally distributed Shape: When the sample size taken
from such a population is sufficiently large, the distribution of its sample means will be approximately normally distributed regardless of the shape of the underlying population those samples are taken from. According to the Central Limit Theorem, the larger the sample size, the more normal the distribution of sample means becomes.

Distribution of the ProportionDistribution of the Proportion
When the sample statistic is generated by a count not a measurement, the proportion of successes in a sample of n trials is p, where Shape: Whenever both n and n(1 –
) are greater than or equal to 5, the distribution of sample proportions will be approximately normally distributed.

Interpretation of Confidence Interpretation of Confidence IntervalsIntervals
Repeated samples of size n taken from the same population will generate (1–)% of the time a sample statistic that falls within the stated confidence interval.
OR We can be (1–)% confident that the
population parameter falls within the stated confidence interval.
