Statistical Sampling

  • Statistical sampling is critical in hypothesis testing.
  • It involves selecting a representative subset, or sample, from a larger population.
  • Samples allow us to make inferences about the population without needing to consider every individual data point.
  • Sample size and sampling techniques are crucial considerations as they affect the validity of conclusions.
  • Common sampling techniques are simple random sampling, stratified sampling, and cluster sampling.
  • Understanding statistical sampling methods is essential for the reliability and validity of insights from hypothesis testing.
