Abstract: Abstract It is fair to say that most of the information we know about contemporary society is obtained as the result of sample surveys. Real populations are finite and the branch of statistics which treats sampling of such populations is called survey sampling. survey sampling For many years survey sampling remained the province of “survey samplers” with very little input from statisticians involved in the more traditional aspects of the subject. The decades of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s saw somewhat successful mergers of the two areas using new approaches to finite population sampling theory based on prediction theory and population based models.
