Descriptive and
Inferential Statistics
Inferential Statistics Uses Sample
Data to Make an Inference About a
Population .
Descriptive Statistics Is Devoted to
the Summarization and Description of
Data (Population or Sample) .

The 5 Ws of Interviewing
Who
What
Where
When
Why
Simplicity of interview
Be brief.
Be relevant.
Be unambiguous.
Be specific.
Be objective.
BUT also be on target for your
research agenda
WHY SAMPLING?
Reduced costs
Reduced field time
Increased accuracy
Enhanced methods
Sampling
A method by which some items
of a given population are selected as
representatives of the entire
population
POPULATION AND
SAMPLE
Population
Sample
Use parameters to
summarize features
Use statistics to
summarize features
Inference on the population from the
TYPES OF SAMPLING
Probability
sampling
Non-probability sampling
Probability sampling
Simple
Random Sampling
Stratified Random Sampling
Systematic Sampling
Multi stage Sampling
sampling population
Need listing of all sampling units
(sampling frame)
Number all units
Randomly draw units
Stratified sampling
Divide sampling frame into
homogeneous subgroups (strata) e.g.
age-group, occupation;
Draw random sample in each strata.
Systematic sampling
Select sample at regular intervals based
on sampling fraction
Cluster sampling
Sample units not identified
independently but in a group (or
cluster)
Provides logistical advantage
sampling
example
:
sampling unit = household
1st stage: draw neighborhoods
2nd stage: draw buildings
3rd stage: draw households
Errors?
Systematic
Sampling
Sampling Error
Random difference between sample and
population from which sample drawn
Size of error can be measured in
probability samples
Expressed as standard error
of mean, proportion
Sampling frame
List of all the sampling units from which
sample is drawn
Lists: e.g. children < 5 years of age,
households, health care units
Sampling scheme
Method of selecting sampling units from
sampling frame
Randomly, convenience sample
Sampling fraction
Ratio between sample size and
population size
Sample Size
Non-probability sampling

Properties of Sampling
Distribution of sample mean
The sampling distribution of X has a mean
equal to the mean of the population from
which the sample was selected
The sampling distribution of X has a
standard deviation equal to the standard
deviation of the population from which the
sample was selected, divided by the
square root of the sample size.
