A hospital wants to survey religious participants in their city about what they seek from a hospital chaplain, so
they randomly select 5 religious meetings in the city and survey every participant in those meetings.
What type of sample is this?

Respuesta :

It’s a cluster sample

Using sampling concepts, it is found that this is an example of cluster sampling.

Samples may be classified as:

  • Convenient: Drawn from a conveniently available pool.
  • Random: All the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
  • Systematic: Every kth element is taken.  
  • Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
  • Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, only some elements of each group are surveyed.

In this problem, each religious meeting is a group, and all participants are surveyed, hence, we have an example of cluster sampling.
