- determine what type of sampling technique is used (Simple Random Sampling, Stratified Random Sampling, Systematic Sampling, Cluster Sampling, or Convenience Sampling). 5.

After a tsunami, a disaster area is divided into 250 equal grids. Thirty of the grids are selected, and every occupied household in the grid is interviewed to help focus relief efforts on what residents require the most. What type of sampling is used? A. Stratified sampling is used, since the disaster area is divded into grids, and a random sample is taken from each grid. B. Cluster sampling is used, since the disaster area is divded into grids, and a random sample is taken from each grid. C. Stratified sampling is used, since the disaster area is divided into grids, and some of those grids are selected and everyone in those grids is interviewed. D. Cluster sampling is used, since the disaster area is divided into grids, and some of those grids are selected and everyone in those grids is interviewed. What potential sources of bias are present, if any? Select all that apply. A. Certain grids…arrow_forwardTelephone surveys may use a telephone directory to identify individuals for study.
