Scales provide

- A range of values that correspond to different values in the concept being measured

Probability techniques & non probability techniques

- Main alternative sampling plan categories

inferential statistics

- allow inferences about a whole population from a sample - primary purpose is to make a judgement about the population

Contingency Tables

Questionnaire Design Process

when is a sample appropriate?

-population size is large & if census is impossible both cost and time associated with obtaining information from population is high & quick decision is needed

stages of selecting a sample
