QUESTION 1
DISTINGUISH CAREFULLY BETWEEN A PILOT SURVEY, A SAMPLE
SURVEY AND A CENSUS.
![Page 3: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Pilot Survey
A small experiment designed to test logistics and gather information prior to a larger study, in order to improve the latter’s quality and efficiency.
It also can reveal deficiencies in the design of a proposed experiment or procedure and these can be addressed before time and resources are expended on large scale studies.

Pilot Survey cont…
To test out the questions and see if they are giving you the type of answers that you want.
People may not understand what you are asking, so the reseacher may need to modify questions to get what you want. If you do not carry a pilot test and not work out on those problems, the results from the final questionnaire may be useless.
Reasons :

SAMPLE SURVEYUse to obtain information about a large aggregate or population by selecting and measuring a sample from that population.
Due to the variability of characteristics among items in the population, researchers apply scientific sample designs in the sample selection process to reduce the risk of a distorted view of the population,
And then, they make inferences about the population based on the information from the sample survey data.

SAMPLE SURVEY CONT…
• A sample survey costs less than a census because data are collected from only part of a group.COST
• Results are obtained far more quickly for a sample survey, than for a census. Fewer units are contacted and less data needs to be processed.
TIME
• The smaller scale of this operation allows for better monitoring and quality control.
CONTROL
• Fewer people have to respond in the sample.RESPONSE

• A census is a survey conducted on the full set of observation objects belonging to a given population or universe.
• The United Nations defines the essential features of population and housing censuses as "individual enumeration, universality within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity", and recommends that population censuses be taken at least every 10 years.

Census cont…
Census data are
published in a wide variety of formats to
be accessible
.
Data can be represented visually or analyzed in
complex statistical models.
Census data offer a unique
insight into small areas and small
demographic groups.

QUESTION 2
WHY RESULTS FROM A CENSUS MIGHT DIFFER
FROM THE TRUE VALUES IN THE POPULATION?
![Page 10: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ERROR IN STATISTICAL DATA
The accuracy of a survey estimate refers to the closeness of the estimate to the true population value. Where there is a discrepancy between the value of the survey estimate and true population value, the difference between the two is referred to as the error of the survey estimate.
![Page 11: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
WHAT IS
ERROR?
Error (statistical error)
describes the difference between a value
obtained from a data collection process and the 'true' value for the
population.

SAMPLING ERRORSampling error which
arises when only a part of the population is used to represent
the whole population.
It occurs solely as a result of using
a sample from a population, rather than conducting a
census the population.
It refers to the difference between an estimate for a population based on data
from a sample and the 'true' value for that population
which would result if a census were taken.
![Page 13: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SAMPLING ERROR cont…
POPULATION SPECIFICATION ERROR
• This error occurs when the researchers does not understand who they should survey.
SAMPLE FRAME ERROR
• A frame error occurs when the wrong sub-population is used to select a sample.
SELECTION ERROR • This occurs when respondents self select their participation in the study – only those that are interested respond. Selection error can be controlled by going extra lengths to get participation.
TYPES
![Page 14: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sampling Error cont…
Careful sample designs
Large samples
Multiple contacts to assure represent
ative response.
![Page 15: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Caused by factors other than those related to sample selection.
• Occur at any stage of a sample survey and can also occur with censuses.
• It refers to the presence of any factor, whether systemic or random.
• Results in the data values not accurately reflecting the 'true' value for the population.
NON-SAMPLING ERROR
![Page 16: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Unit in the sample is incorrectly excluded or included, or is duplicated in the sample.
• The failure to obtain a response from some unit
• because of absence, non-contact, refusal, or some other reason.
• Respondents intentionally or accidentally providing inaccurate responses.
• Concepts, questions or instructions are not clearly understood by the respondent.

INTERVIEWER ERROR
• Interviewers incorrectly record information; are not neutral or objective; influence the respondent to answer in a particular way; or assume responses based on appearance or other characteristics.
PROCESSING ERROR
• Errors that occur in the process of data collection, data entry, coding, editing and output.

WHY ERROR DOES MATTER?
The greater the errors, the less reliable are the results of the study.
A credible data source will have measures in place throughout the data collection process to minimize the amount of error.be transparent about the size of the expected error so that users can decide whether the data are 'fit for purpose'.
![Page 19: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
HOW DO WE MEASURE ERROR?
Two common measures of error:Standard Error (SE)
- measure of the variation between any estimated population
value - based on a sample
rather than true value for the population.
Relative Standard Error (RSE)
- standard error expressed as a
proportion of an estimated value.
- useful measure as they provide an indication of the
relative size of the error likely to have
occurred due to sampling.
![Page 20: Sampling method](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545b958caf795994188b6314/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
WHAT CAN MEASURES OF ERROR TELL US?
The standard error can be used to construct a confidence interval.
• C.I is a range in which it is estimated the true population value lies.
• C.I of different sizes can be created to represent different levels of confidence that the true population value will lie within a particular range.

Example:
We want to conduct a survey about the UiTM cafeteria in UiTM Machang. The survey is based on the customers’ satisfaction on the food, price, facilities and services provided by every cafeteria in UiTM Machang. The customers’ are selected from the all UiTM students in that campus.

As for sampling error happen

As for non-sampling error
happen because:
COVERAGE ERRORMay happen due to unit
in the sample is incorrectly excluded or
included or is duplicate in the sample.
NON-RESPONSE ERRORSome of the respondents might not respond or not
answers the questions being asked.
RESPONSE ERROR Respondents not
understand about the survey or question that
being asked.
