Simple Random Sampling

A. The population is divided into subgroups, and a random sample is taken from
each group to maintain representation.
B. A completely random process is used to select participants, ensuring every
member of the population has an equal chance of being chosen.
C. Individuals are selected at regular intervals from a list after randomly choosing a
starting point.
D. Entire groups or geographic areas are randomly selected instead of individuals.
(Answer: B - Simple Random Sampling)
2. Stratified Random Sampling
A. A population is divided into subgroups based on specific characteristics, and a
proportional number of individuals are randomly selected from each group.
B. Every person in the population has an equal chance of selection using a
completely random process.
C. A researcher selects participants at fixed intervals from a population list.
D. The researcher randomly selects whole groups or clusters instead of individuals.
(Answer: A - Stratified Random Sampling)
3. Systematic Random Sampling
A. The researcher randomly selects entire groups, such as schools or cities, instead
of individuals.
B. The population is divided into categories, and a proportional number of
individuals are randomly chosen from each category.
C. Every nth individual is chosen from a list after selecting a random starting point.
D. A combination of different probability sampling methods is used at multiple
stages.
(Answer: C - Systematic Random Sampling)
4. Cluster Random Sampling
A. The researcher assigns numbers to all population members and randomly
selects individuals using a random generator.
B. The researcher first divides the population into subgroups and then selects a
proportionate number from each group randomly.
C. Instead of selecting individuals, the researcher randomly chooses entire groups,
such as schools or towns, and includes all members of the selected groups.
D. Every nth person from a list is chosen after selecting a starting point.
(Answer: C - Cluster Random Sampling)
5. Multi-Stage Random Sampling
A. The researcher selects individuals randomly using a simple random sampling
method.
B. The population is divided into subgroups, and participants are randomly selected
to ensure balanced representation.
C. A combination of different probability sampling techniques is applied at multiple
levels, often in large geographic areas.
D. Participants are chosen at equal intervals from a list after a random start.
(Answer: C - Multi-Stage Random Sampling)
6. Simple Random Sampling
A. A school administrator lists all students and picks every 5th name from the list.
B. A computer randomly selects individuals from a population where each person
has an equal chance of being chosen.
C. A country is divided into provinces, and the researcher selects some provinces at
random for a study.
D. A researcher ensures that each subgroup of a population is proportionally
represented by selecting randomly within each group.
(Answer: B - Simple Random Sampling)
7. Stratified Random Sampling
A. A hospital survey ensures equal representation by randomly selecting 60 nurses
and 40 doctors from a total of 600 nurses and 400 doctors.
B. A company selects every 10th employee from a list of all workers.
C. A university randomly selects three campuses to include all students from those
locations in a study.
D. A national research project randomly selects cities and then randomly selects
households within those cities for interviews.
(Answer: A - Stratified Random Sampling)
8. Systematic Random Sampling
A. A researcher randomly selects entire groups, such as cities or schools, instead of
individuals.
B. The researcher divides the population into subgroups based on characteristics
and selects individuals from each group randomly.
C. From a list of 1,000 employees, a researcher randomly picks a starting point and
then selects every 20th employee for a survey.
D. A researcher randomly selects entire districts, then randomly chooses schools
within those districts, and finally selects students from those schools.
(Answer: C - Systematic Random Sampling)
 9. Cluster Random Sampling
A. A researcher selects all Grade 12 students in a randomly chosen school district
rather than selecting individual students from different districts.
B. A researcher assigns numbers to all employees and uses a computer to select
individuals randomly.
C. The researcher ensures that participants from different subgroups are
proportionally represented in the sample.
D. A researcher selects every 8th person from an alphabetized list of patients.
(Answer: A - Cluster Random Sampling)
10. Multi-Stage Random Sampling
A. A survey first randomly selects provinces, then randomly selects cities within
those provinces, and finally selects households within the chosen cities.
B. A researcher selects participants at equal intervals from a complete list after
picking a random start.
C. Every member of the population has an equal chance of selection through a
random process.
D. A researcher divides a population into subgroups based on characteristics, then
selects participants proportionally from each subgroup.
(Answer: A – Multi-Stage Random Sampling)
