Lesson Random Sampling

1

’s In

Why do researchers resort to sampling and why is it important to them? Everyone who
has undergone research projects knows that resources are limited. Time, money and people
never come in an unlimited supply. Thus, most researches aim to gather data from a sample of
people, rather than from the entire population. Sampling allows researchers to:

a. save time
b. save money; and
c. collect richer and meaningful data
But what exactly is sampling, and how does it work? A research sample is like any
other sample, it’s a small piece or part of something that represents a larger whole. But what
does it mean to randomly sample people, and how does a researcher do that?

 In modern statistics, the main object to be analysed is data. If you get a
portion of the totality of data to be analysed, then these data are called sample.
Otherwise, if you analyse the whole data available, then it is called population.

When the recording of information of an entire population is conducted,

this is called a census. An example of this is collecting the grades of all the Grade
11 learners, or the decennial population census done by the Philippine Statistics
Authority (PSA). However, in most cases, censuses involve great challenges.
Also, one does not need to do a full count to get information, especially on flow
data, such as agricultural production, household expenditure, and establishment
income. This brings us to sampling, which is the process of selecting a section of
the population.

There are many reasons why we resort to sampling. Some of these reasons
or to be considered are the cost, timeliness, accuracy, detailed information, and
destructive testing.
Let us define some important terms that will help us understand more about
random sampling.
Sample –part/portion/fraction/segment of the population being studied
Population – the whole universe or consists of all elements or totality of things
considered in a study
Survey – method of systematically gathering of information
Sample survey - method of systematically gathering of information on a
segment/part/fraction/portion of a population for the purpose of inferring
quantitative descriptors of the attributes of the population
Sampling - process of selecting a section of the population
Random –the outcome is obtained only by chance
Random Sampling – method of choosing an equally distributed subset/portion
from a larger population to be used as basis in describing or making conclusions
about the population
Statistical Inference - process of using sample statistics to draw conclusions
about true population parameters

NegOr_Q3_Stat_and_Prob11_Module5_v2
 There are two types of sampling. These are probability and non-
probability sampling. Probability sampling involves units obtained using chance
mechanism, and requires the use of a sampling frame (a list/map of all the
sampling units in the population) while in a non-probability sample, units are
chosen without regard to their probability of occurrence.
Probability Sampling
It is a sampling method that allows every member of the population to have an
equal chance of being selected into the sample.
Basic types of Probability Sampling
a. Simple random sampling (SRS) involves allowing each possible sample
to have an equal chance of being picked and every member of the
population has an equal chance of being included in the sample. Selection
may be with replacement (selected individual or unit is returned to frame
for possible reselection) or without replacement (selected individual or unit
is not returned to the frame). This sampling method requires a listing of the
elements of the population called the sampling frame. Example of this is
‘draw lots’ activity.
b. Stratified sampling is an extension of simple random sampling which
allows for different homogeneous groups, called strata, in the population to
be represented in the sample. To obtain a stratified sample, the population
is divided into two or more strata based on common characteristics. A SRS
is then used to select from each strata, with sample sizes proportional to
strata sizes. Samples from the strata are then combined into one. This is a
common technique when sampling from a population of voters, stratifying
across racial or socio-economic classes.
c. Systematic sampling, elements are selected from the population at a
uniform interval that is measured in time, order, or space.
Typically, there is firstly, a decision on a desired sample size n. The frame
of N units is then divided into groups of k units: k=N/n. Then, one unit is
randomly selected from the first group, with every k th unit thereafter also
selected.

d. Cluster sampling divides the population into groups called clusters, selects
a random sample of clusters, and then, subjects the sampled clusters to

4
NegOr_Q3_Stat_and_Prob11_Module5_v2
 complete enumeration, that is everyone in the sampled clusters are made
part of the sample.

Non- probability Sampling

It is a sampling method that does not allow every member of the population to
have an equal chance of being selected into the sample.
Basic types of Non-Probability Sampling
a. Haphazard or accidental sampling involves an unsystematic selection of
sample units. Some disciplines like archaeology, history, and even
medicine draw conclusions from whatever items are made available. Some
disciplines like astronomy, experimental physics, and chemistry often do
not care about the “representativeness” of their specimens.
b. In convenience sampling, sample units expedient/near/easy to access to
the sampler are taken.
c. For volunteer sampling, sample units are volunteers in studies wherein the
measuring process is painful or troublesome to a respondent.
d. Purposive sampling pertains to having an expert select a representative
sample based on his own subjective judgment or his own purpose for the
study.
e. In Quota Sampling, sample units are picked for convenience but certain
quotas (such as the number of persons to interview) are given to
interviewers. This design is especially used in market research.
f. In Snowball Sampling, additional sample units are identified by asking
previously picked sample units for people they know who can be added to
the sample. Usually, this is used when the topic is not common, or the
population is hard to access.
Some methods of data collection – mail, face-to-face interview, e-survey,
phone survey, SMS survey.

sampling) and the type of sampling illustrated in the example situations below.

 1. If a population has an equal number of males and females in it, so does the
sample.
2. If we wish to draw a sample of 50 individuals from a population of 1000
patients admitted in a certain hospital, we could place the 1000 names in a
container and blindfolded, draw one name at a time.
3. The Grade 11 student who happens to be taking a STEM course in the
Senior High School and is therefore a convenient subject to use, frequently
becomes part of the sample in a research. The students in a class may
constitute the entire sample because they happen to be in a class whose
teacher is interested in doing a research.
4. A school has 900 students of which 380 are males and 520 are females. A
sample of 120 students are needed. To obtain a sample proportional to the
given members in each stratum, and finding the proportion of the samples
to the population which is equal to the desired sample size of 120 students.
5. In a population of 200, we wish to get a sample of 40. We obtain n by
dividing 200 by 40 to obtain n=5. This means that every 5 th element of a
given population that is arranged alphabetically or in any systematic
fashion is selected to make the sample size.

Parameters in statistics are important component of any statistical analysis.

In simple words, a parameter is any numerical quantity that characterizes a given
population. This means that the parameter tells us something about the whole
population.
What is the difference between a statistic and a parameter?
A statistics and parameter are very similar. They are both descriptors of
groups, like “50% of dog owners prefer X Brand dog food.” The difference
between a statistic and parameter is that statistic describe a sample, while
parameter describes an entire population.

Region VII. The researcher obtains the average weight of 54 kg, from a random
sample of 40 females.
Solution: In the given situation, the statistics are the average weight of 54 kg,
calculated from a simple random sample of 40 females, in Region VII while the
parameter is the mean weight of all females aged 22 years or older.
2. A researcher wants to estimate the average amount of water consumed by male
teenagers in a day. From a simple random sample of 55 male teens the researcher

 is It

In previous lessons, we were provided the concepts about sampling,

including the reasons for sampling as opposed to the conduct of a full-enumeration
census. It was also pointed out that probability sampling, where samples are
selected using chance methods, enable the samples to be representative of the
population being studied.

A statistic, such as the sample mean or the sample standard deviation, is a

number computed from a sample. Since a sample is at random, every statistic is a
random variable: it varies from sample to sample in a way that cannot be predicted
with certainty. As a random variable it has a mean, a variance, a standard
deviation, and a probability distribution. The probability distribution of a statistic
or the set of all possible estimates generated is called sampling distribution, the
mean of sample means or this statistic is called expected value, and the standard
deviation of sample means or this statistic is called the standard error.

Samples can be drawn with and without replacement. In addition, if the

sampling protocol were to be replicated, then a new set of samples (and data)
would be obtained, thus yielding different estimates from one sample to another.
Thus, an estimate based on sample could be different if the sampling process were
to be repeated many times.

Example.

There are three balls numbered 1, 2, and 3. Two of the balls are selected
randomly and the average/mean of their numbers is computed.

We now summarize these means as follows:
a. two samples have mean of 1.5;

Sampling Distribution of the Sample Mean for Normal Population when the
Variance/Standard deviation is known or unknown.
Three major points about the Sampling Distribution of the Sample Mean
1. The EV or expected value or mean of sample means is equal to the
population mean µ.
EV = µ
This is the reason why sample can be used to represent a population
because they have the same value for the mean.

16
NegOr_Q3_Stat_and_Prob11_Module5_v2
You can prove this by simply comparing the value of population mean of the
three balls in the given examples above and the mean of sample means when
two balls are drawn with replacement.
2. The SE or standard error or standard deviation of sample means can
be computed when population variance is known using
𝜎
𝑆𝐸 = (for samples with replacement) and
√𝑛

𝜎 𝑁−𝑛
𝑆𝐸 = .√ (for samples without replacement) where 𝜎 is the population

standard deviation.

Example on the case above, three balls numbered 1, 2, and 3. Two samples are

The standard deviation of the population is 𝜎 = √ .

 I Can Do

Task 7
You can do it!
Consider the heights of 5 learners. Suppose you are interested in estimating the average height
of the learners by getting estimates based on the sample average height of two learners selected
at random with replacement. The learners have equal chance of being selected.

Learner Height (in

meter)
1 1.64
2 1.58
3 1.58
4 1.33
5 1.60

1. list of all possible random samples.
2. the population mean.
3. the population variance and standard deviation
4. the expected value
5. the standard error
