MCQs Sampling -1

MCQs sampling for the preparation of exams and different statistical job tests in Government/ Semi-Government or Private Organization sectors. These tests are also helpful in getting admission to different colleges and Universities.

1. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of any statistic is called

3. The sample size of $h$th stratum by proportion allocation is

 
 
 
 

4. The difference between statistic and parameter is called

 
 
 
 
 

5. The procedure in which a number of elements in a stratum is proportional to a number of elements in the population is classified as:

 
 
 
 

6. Any numerical value computed from the population is called

 
 
 
 
 

7. In sampling with replacement, a sampling unit can be selected

10. Consider a population of size 700 consisting of three strata such that $N_1=100, N_2=250$, and $N_3=350$. The required sample size is 18. What will be the sample size for stratum-I according to proportional allocation?

 
 
 
 

11. Sampling in which a sampling unit can be repeated more than once is called

 
 
 
 

12. Sample allocation plan that provides the most precision, given a fixed sample size is

 
 
 
 

13. Selection of the sample size $n$ to be the same for all the strata is known as:

 
 
 
 

14. Any numerical value calculated from sample data is called

 
 
 
 
 

15. The sample is a subset of

 
 
 
 
 

16. The list of all units in a population is called

18. Consider a population of size 700 consisting of three strata such that $N_1=100, N_2=250$, and $N_3=350$. The required sample size is 18. What will be the sample size for stratum-II according to proportional allocation?

 
 
 
 

19. Non-Sampling error is reduced by

 
 
 
 

20. Consider a population of size 700 consisting of three strata such that $N_1=100, N_2=250$, and $N_3=350$. The required sample size is 18. What will be the sample size for stratum-III according to proportional allocation?
