Some elementary properties of systematic sampling

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

In many sample surveys, systematic sampling is employed in lieu of simple random sampling. Here, systematic sampling is compared with the simple random and stratified random sampling procedures. The comparisons are made utilizing two different assumptions about the “exchangeability” of the random variables under investigation. For the systematic sampling method, several appropriate estimators of variance are suggested.
