    This document provides an overview of sampling design concepts for an AP Statistics class. It defines key terms like population, census, sample, and sampling frame. It also describes different sampling methods like simple random sampling, stratified random sampling, cluster sampling, and systematic sampling. The document discusses potential sources of bias in surveys and asks students to identify biases in sample scenarios. The goal is for students to understand how and why samples are used to make inferences about populations.

    What is data?

    How do we gather data?

    Population:

    Census:

    Why don’t we use a census all of the time?

    HOW GOOD IS A CENSUS?

    Printed below is a story which can be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of a census. Assume
    that the letter "G" or "g" is a defective product caused by the Gremlin, and that you are the
    inspector. Allow yourself about 3 minutes to count all the G's or g's. Place your total at the bottom
    of the story.

    A FAIRY TALE

    While strolling through a glen, a giddy English girl tripped on a rather large, almost gigantic
    frog. The girl staggered but regained her footing and was about to go on when the frog began to
    speak and gesticulate to gain the girl's attention. "I have not always been a frog," he croaked. The
    frog's green coloring seemed to glow brightly as he continued. "I was once a gracious knight. A
    gentleman called Gallant George Grenville, but was changed into this ghastly frog you now see by an
    ungodly, magical genie. The spell can only be broken if I gain a girl's good graces and spend a night
    in her garden." The agog girl was skeptical, of course. She gazed at the frog's pleading eyes and
    soon her doubts gave way to her giddy nature. Giggling, she decided to grant the frog's wish and
    took him home straightway, putting him by her garden gate. That night the girl slept grandly and
    sure enough, when she awoke the following morning, there alongside her garden gate was the
    gracious knight, George Grenville. Well, strangely enough, for a long, long time the girl's mother did
    not believe that story.

    Why don’t we do a census all the time?

    Sample:

    Sampling design:

    Sampling frame:

    STEP 3: Types of Sampling Designs: Watch the video for each of the following sampling designs.

    1) Convenience Sampling

    2) Simple Random Sample (SRS)

    Advantages:

    Disadvantages:

    STEP 4: For the following problems, identify the sampling method used (ex. SRS). Check your answers
    below.

    1) The Educational Testing Service (ETS) needed a sample of colleges. ETS first divided all colleges
    into groups of similar types (ex. small public, small private, etc). Then they randomly selected 3
    colleges from each group.

    2) A county commissioner wants to survey people in her district o determine their opinions on a
    particular law up for adoption. She decides to randomly select city blocks in her district and then
    survey all who live on those blocks.

    3) A local restaurant manager wants to survey customers about the service they receive. Each
    night the manager randomly chooses a number between 1 and 10. He then gives a survey to
    that customer and to every 10th customer after them, to fill out before they leave.

    How to pick numbers randomly

    1) Random digit table

    Suppose your population consisted of these 20 people:


    1) Aidan 11) Kathy
    2) Bob 12) Lou
    3) Chico 13) Matthew
    4) Doug 14) Nan
    5) Edward 15) Opus
    6) Fred 16) Paul
    7) Gloria 17) Shawnie
    8) Hannah 18) Tracy
    9) Israel 19) Uncle Sam
    10) Jung 20) Vernon

    Use the random digits to select a sample of five from these people.

    2) Random number generator


    Math  Prob  RandInt (lower bound, upper bound, <optional = how many numbers you want picked>)

    Bias:

    Voluntary Response Bias:

    Convenience Bias:
    Ms. Olson Unit 1 Notes Part 1: Sampling Design AP Statistics

    Undercoverage:

    Nonresponse Bias:

    Response Bias:

    Wording of the Question:

    STEP 7: For each of the following situations, identify one form of bias present in the survey AND determine whether that
    would cause the results from the sample to be higher or lower than the true population. Video solutions follow.

    1) Before the presidential election of 1936, FDR against Republican Alf Landon, the magazine Literary Digest
    predicted Landon would win after surveying 10 million people. The Digest’s survey came from magazine
    subscribers, car owners, telephone directories, etc. (FYI: FDR won that election.)

    2) Suppose that you want to estimate the total amount of money spent by students on textbooks each
    semester at SMU. You collect register receipts for students as they leave the bookstore during lunch one
    day.

    3) To find the average value of a home in Plano, TX, one averages the price of homes that are listed for sale
    with a realtor.
