Demography, Models, Sampling, TechniquesAbstract
The fundamentals of sampling with emphasis on determining the optimal sample size are given. Absolute and relative sampling as well as the comparison among them is stressed. The importance of spatial distribution in sampling design is noted and various current models for its determination are offered. Three current models are discussed briefly, and finally, due to the practical and economical significance of sequential sampling, five different types of this kind of sampling design are fully addressed.
