Random Sample (Anthromorphemics)

A sample in which each individual in a population has the same chance of being selected as any other.

Random Sample (Anthropology)

A sample in which each individual in a population has the same chance of being selected as any other.

Random Sample (Developmental Psychology)

A sample in which each member of a population has an equal chance of being chosen as a subject.

Random Sample (Explosives)

Sample selected without bias or prejudice.

Random Sample (Food)

A random sample is a procedure to select subjects for a study in which all individuals in a population being studied have an equal chance of being selected. using a random sample allows the results of the study to be generalized to the entire population.
e term random also applies to assignments within controlled studies, or the division of subjects into groups. ndom assignment ensures that all subjects have an equal chance of being in the experimental and control groups, and increases the probability that any unidentified variable will systematically occur in both groups with the same frequency. ndomization is crucial to control for variables that researchers may not be aware of or cannot adequately control, but which could affect the outcome of an experimental study.

Random Sample (Non-Profit Accountability)

A set of items that have been drawn from a population in such a way that each time an item was selected, every item in the population had an equal opportunity to appear in the sample. See also:Biased Sample, Sample, Stratified Sample

Random Sample (Statistics)

A SAMPLE drawn from a POPULATION in such a way that every individual of the POPULATION has an equal chance of appearing in the SAMPLE. This ensures that the SAMPLE is REPRESENTATIVE, and provides the necessary basis for virtually all forms of inference from SAMPLE to POPULATION, including the informal inference which is characteristic of RE-RANDOMISATION statistics. PSEUDO-RANDOM procedures can be useful in defining a RANDOM SAMPLE.
