    The document discusses key concepts in statistics and probability related to sampling, including defining a population as the entire group under study and a sample as a subset of the population. It describes random sampling as selecting elements from a population where each sample point has an equal chance of being selected, and lists common types of random sampling techniques like lottery sampling and stratified random sampling. The document also covers non-random sampling, which is used when samples are not proportionate to the population, and defines types of non-random sampling such as accidental sampling and convenience sampling. Additionally, it provides brief definitions of mean and sampling distribution.

    Statistics and

    Probability
    Population- refers to the entire group that is
    under study or investigation.
    Sample- subset taken from a population,
    either by random or no-random sampling
    techniques. It is a representation of the
    population.
    Random sampling- it is a selection of n
    elements derived from a population N
    which is the subject of the investigation or
    experiment, where each sample point has
    an equal chance of being selected.
    Types of Random Sampling

    1. Lottery sampling- sampling technique


    where every number of the population
    has an equal chance of being selected.
    2. Systematic sampling- sampling
    technique in which members of the
    population are listed and samples are
    selected in intervals called sample
    intervals.
    3. Stratified random sampling- sampling
    procedure wherein the members of the
    population are grouped based on their
    homogeneity.
    4. Cluster sampling- sometimes called area
    sampling , it is applied on a geographical
    basis. It is generally done by first sampling at
    the higher levels before going to the lower
    levels
    5. Multi-stage sampling- done using a
    combination and different sampling
    techniques.
    Non-random sampling- it is used when the
    sample is not proportion of the population
    and when there is no system in selecting a
    sample.
    TYPES of NON-RANDOM SAMPLING
    1. Accidental sampling- only those whom
    researcher meets by chance are
    included in the sample when using this
    technique.
    2. Quota sampling- includes a specified
    number of persons of certain types to be taken
    as sample.
    3. Convenience sampling- most convenient
    and fastest sampling technique that make use
    of the telephone, mobile phones or the
    internet.
    4. Purposive sampling- used in very small
    sample size. Sampling technique in which
    researchers rely on their own judgement
    when choosing members of population to
    participate in their study.
    Mean- It is calculated by dividing the sum of
    the observations by the total number of
    observations.
    Sampling distribution- The probability
    distribution when all possible samples of size
    n are repeatedly drawn from a population.
