Many times we collect samples of data from a bigger population because the population is too large to use….because of time, cost, and ease. But, the best samples are a true reflection of the bigger population data, making the decisions made from analyzing the sample data effective for the whole population affected. This Unit discussed several different sample types. Please define and then discuss how you might collect each of the following samples from your own organization:
Simple Random Sample
Stratified Random Sample
Cluster Random Sample
Which of the these three would likely give you the best reflection of the population data?
