Intro to Econometrics
Cluster sampling is a statistical technique where the population is divided into distinct groups, or clusters, and a random sample of these clusters is selected for analysis. This method is particularly useful when the population is large and spread out, allowing researchers to save time and resources by studying whole clusters rather than individual members. It often works well in conjunction with other sampling methods and can improve efficiency in data collection.
