Institution:

CUNY Bernard M Baruch College

Subject:

Computer Information Systems

Description:

3 hours; 3 credits Designed primarily for those who plan to employ sampling procedures in the solution of marketing, business, and industrial problems. Basic sampling theory is developed in order to ensure a mature understanding of sampling methods. The mechanics of sampling are stressed, involving such important problems as selection of sampling unit, determination of sample size, random and stratified sampling, purposive selection, sub-sampling and sampling clusters, sampling from a finite universe, the analysis of variance in the design of sample experiments, sampling limitations as a result of fixed administrative cost conditions, and area and quota sampling. Emphasis is placed on the application of sampling techniques to market research, audience analysis, and industrial quality control. Prerequisite: STA 3154.
