Stratified sampling is a good choice when the population has multiple distinct groups that are internally homogenous but not representative of the population as a whole. Stratified sampling is a useful method if the population is not well understood or there are no groups within the population that need to be analyzed individually. Stratified sampling is a useful method when the individuals in the population are generated in a continuous stream, like on an assembly line. 6. In reference to different sampling methods, cluster sampling includes the steps: use simple random sampling to select a set of groups; every individual in the chosen groups is included in the sample. Select the correct answer below: True False 7. When is cluster sampling appropriate?
