This description fits systematic sampling, which involves selecting every kth element from a list. Simple random sampling involves selecting elements randomly without regard to their position in the list. Disproportionate sampling involves deliberately selecting elements in unequal proportions based on certain criteria. Cluster sampling involves dividing the population into groups or clusters, randomly selecting some clusters, and then sampling all elements within the chosen clusters. Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into subgroups or strata based on certain criteria, and then randomly selecting elements from each subgroup.
