Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A skip interval is used in systematic sampling where the population is ordered and individuals are selected at regular intervals, making it the best choice. In simple random sampling, every individual in the population has an equal chance of being selected, without a skip interval. Cluster sampling involves dividing the population into groups or clusters, selecting some clusters randomly, and then selecting all individuals within those clusters. Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into strata or sub-groups and then randomly selecting individuals from each stratum. Convenient skip sampling is not a commonly recognized sampling method.
