Systematic Random Sampling
Advantage: Disadvantage:
• Ensures spread of • pseudo-random
sample population • may not have representative
across the target sample if sampling frame is
population arranged according to a
variable
Sampling Designs
Steps:
1. Divide the sampling population into non-
overlapping groups (strata)
2. Prepare a sampling frame for each stratum
3. Calculate for the sampling fraction, p
p= n/N
4. Select sample from each stratum =p using
simple random or systematic sampling

Cluster Sampling
Groups are randomly selected and all elements belonging to
the sampled groups are included
Steps:
1. Prepare sampling frame with groups (cluster) as
sampling unit
2. Take a simple random sample of clusters.
3. All elements in the chosen clusters will be included in
the sample.
Note: sample size should consider design effect

Sampling Population:
2. Take a simple random sample of OHPs in Industrial Clinics in
clusters. Luzon
Steps:
1. Divide the population into 1st stage sampling units and
randomly select a sample
2. Divide the selected sampling units into secondary sampling
units (2nd stage) and randomly select a sample
3. Divide the selected 2nd stage sample into tertiary sampling
units (3rd stage) and randomly select a sample
Note: requires sophisticated statistical inference methodologies

Sampling Error
• The difference between the sample value
and the unknown true value
Sampling error
Non-sampling error
Selection Bias
• Criteria used to recruit and enroll patients
into separate study cohorts are inherently
different. Pannucci, et.al. Identifying and Avoiding Bias
