Cards in this deck (2)
- 1Definitionevery member of the population is assigned to one group, and a random sampling of these clusters is selected
- 2ExampleCluster sampling is typically used when the researcher cannot get a complete list of the members of a population they wish to study but can get a complete list of groups or 'clusters' of the population. It is also used when a random sample would produce a list of subjects so widely scattered that surveying them would prove to be far too expensive, for example, people who live in different postal districts in the UK
