Survey Sampling
Survey sampling describes the process of selecting a sample
of elements from a target population to conduct a survey. The term
"survey" may refer to many different types or techniques of
observation. In survey sampling it most often involves a questionnaire used to
measure the characteristics and/or attitudes of people.
Different ways of contacting members of a sample once they
have been selected is the subject of survey data collection. The purpose of
sampling is to reduce the cost and/or the amount of work that it would take to
survey the entire target population. A survey that measures the entire target
population is called a census.
