When Stratified Sampling Is Used?

Stratified sampling is used when the researcher wants to understand the existing relationship between two groups. The researcher can represent even the smallest sub-group in the population.

When stratified random sampling is used?

Stratified random sampling allows researchers to obtain a sample population that best represents the entire population being studied. Stratified random sampling involves dividing the entire population into homogeneous groups called strata.
