Which sampling method is based on probability?
There are many such methods: cluster sampling, stratified random sampling, simple random sampling.Their usefulness depends on the circumstances.
Are random sampling and stratified sampling one and same?
No.
What is the difference between stratified and random sampling?
In a stratified sample, the sampling proportion is the same for each stratum. In a random sample it should be but, due to randomness, need not be.
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.
Is the best description of a stratified random sample?
Stratified random sampling is a form of probability sampling that provides a methodology for dividing a population into smaller subgroups as a means of ensuring greater accuracy of your high-level survey results. The smaller subgroups are called strata. Stratified random sampling is also called proportional or quota random sampling.
