An excellent introductory that uses simple numerical illustrations to provide an intuitive understanding of concepts and confirm major results. Describes various methods for sample selection and estimation including unequal probability sampling and the prediction approach. The accompanying disk contains data files for cases and two computer programs––one of which is an interactive DOS program designed to serve as a tutorial by assisting the implementation of complicated sampling formulas.
Sampling Methods for Applied Research is an applied, one semester introduction to sampling methods for nonmathematics majors. Not just a handbook of formulas, this text uses simple numerical illustrations to provide an intuitive understanding of concepts and to confirm major results. In addition to the standard methods of sample selection and estimation, the book covers unequal probability sampling and the prediction approach.
