Prerequisites and co-requisites
The study aims to provide students with the knowledge, skills and competencies needed to understand the meaning of statistics, interpret the results of sample social research, and design samples for various types of research as an important stage of research planning in general and data collection in particular. Methods of constructing complex multistage probabilistic samples, practical approaches to estimating the design effect of such samples and the impact of the design effect on the interpretation of the results of analysis of sample research data are also in focus.
