  1. representative sampling

    Representative sampling is a process used in statistical analysis in which a predetermined number of observations or data are taken from a larger population in order to infer or draw conclusions about the characteristics, behaviors, or attributes of that population. The key feature of representative sampling is that each sample should accurately reflect the larger group, maintaining the same proportions, distributions, and variations present in the overall population. This helps to minimize bias and increase the validity and reliability of the data collected.
