Introduction
Random sampling is one of most straightforward methods of gathering data from a
population. It is a technique wherein each sample has been equal probability of
being picked. The sample that has been chosen should be unbiased however when
the sample does not represent the total population it is called a sampling error. So,
to avoid sampling bias, the researchers should use simple random sampling
methods in which samples were carefully chosen and equal representation of
members of population must be chosen.
Sampling bias means the samples that are collected do not represent the population
because of random reasons. To avoid sampling bias researchers should be careful
about the research design and the procures also oversampling can be used to
correct under coverage bias.
