POPULATION & SAMPLE
SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
- is the branch of mathematics concerned with the techniques by which information is collected, organized, analyzed and interpreted.
1. It refers to actual numbers derived from data. For example,
- the number of medals won in the Asian games.
- the number of malnourished children in a barangay.
- the attendance figures for a concert.
2. It formally refers to the simple collection, tabulation, and data summation forming meaningful inferences and conclusions.
- Utilizes numerical and graphical methods to look for the patterns in the data set.
- Draws conclusions like decisions, predictions or generalizations about the data set.
1. The increasingly quantitative approach employed in all the sciences, in business and in many activities that directly affect the lives of people requires study.
For example,
- evaluation of antipollution control. - evaluation of traffic in the city. - study of diet and longevity. - study of communicable disease - evaluation of teaching techniques and
curriculum
2. The amount of statistical information that is collected, processed and disseminated to the public has increased tremendously such that more persons with knowledge of statistics are needed to collect the right data, analyze the data wisely, and take part in all the planning.Back to page 1
A statistician is someone who is particularly versed in the ways of thinking necessary for the successful application of statistical analysis. Often such people have gained this experience after starting work in any of a number of fields.
There is also a discipline called mathematical statistics, which is concerned with the theoretical basis of the subject.
The word statistics can either be singular or plural. When it refers to the discipline, "statistics" is singular, as in "Statistics is an art."
When it refers to quantities (such as mean and median) calculated from a set of data, statistics is plural, as in "These statistics are misleading."
Some scholars pinpoint the origin of statistics to 1663, with the publication of Natural and Political Observations upon the Bills of Mortality by John Graunt. Early applications of statistical thinking revolved around the needs of states to base policy on demographic and economic data, hence its stat- etymology.
Its mathematical foundations were laid in the 17th century with the development of probability theory by Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat. Probability theory arose from the study of games of chance. The method of least squares was first described by Carl Friedrich Gauss around 1794.
The use of modern computers has expedited large-scale statistical computation, and has also made possible new methods that are impractical to perform manually.
The scope of the discipline of statistics broadened in the early 19th century to include the collection and analysis of data in general.
Statistics is also important in many aspects of society such as business, industry and government. Because of the increasing use of statistics in so many areas of our lives, it has become very desirable to understand and practice statistical thinking.
This is important even if you do not use statistical methods directly.
Today, statistics has become an important tool in the work of many academic disciplines such as medicine, psychology, education, sociology, engineering and physics, just to name a few.
