Example: If you were asked to sample 100 fellows students in your school about soft drink preferences for the school shop, it would be more accurate if, instead of asking 100 friends, you split the school up into certain strata, such as class groups, ages or gender. So if the whole school contains 1000 students of whom 50 are girls in year group 8, an accurate sample of 100 would contain five girls from group 8 (50/1000x100). This process would be repeated with all year groups until the total required sample of 100 was reached. The people to be surveyed in each stratum should be selected randomly..

Hope this example helps..

What is a stratified random sample?

Stratified random sampling is a sampling scheme which is used when the population comprises a number of strata, or subsets, which are similar within the strata but differ from one stratum to another. One example is school children stratified according to classes, or salaries stratified by departments.A simple random sample may not have enough representatives from each stratum and the solution is to use stratified random sampling. Under this scheme, the overall sampling proportion (sample size/population size) is determined and a sample is drawn from each stratum which represents the same proportion.

What is the difference between quota and stratified sampling?

The main difference between the quota and stratified sampling is that in the stratified sampling the researcher can not select the individuals to be included in the sample (he doesn't have control over who will be in the simple), but in the quota sampling the researcher has control over who will be in the sample (he can contact certain people and include them in the sample).
