Overview
Reviews sampling methods used in surveys: simple random sampling, systematic sampling, stratification, cluster and multi-stage sampling, sampling with probability proportional to size, two-phase sampling, replicated sampling, panel designs, and non-probability sampling. Kalton discusses issues of practical implementation, including frame problems and non-response, and gives examples of sample designs for a national face-to-face interview survey and for a telephone survey. He also treats the use of weights in survey analysis, the computation of sampling errors with complex sampling designs, and the determination of sample size.The book, Introduction to Survey Sampling (Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences) [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9781483347264 in Hardcover by Graham Kalton may be ordered in bulk quantities.
