Question

Which type of sampling could you use to gather your data between temperature and gender? (stratified, cluster, systematic, and convenience sampling).

Answer 1

Hi ,

I think this will help you to understand the basic knowledge of it.

We are using Cluster Sampling here because ,

1. Cluster elements should be as heterogenous as possible. In other words, the population should contain distinct sub-populations of different types.
2. Each cluster should be a small representation of the entire population.
3. Each cluster should be mutually exclusive. In other words, it should be impossible for each cluster to occur together. In the city tax example, it would be impossible for Miami city taxes and Jacksonville city taxes to occur together, so it fits the requirements for mutual exclusivity.
