Abstract: Statistical research by spot checks is used with great results in almost all economic and social research on a random basis. The social field and especially the living standard and the life quality scope, due to their complexity, sometimes require as the sole alternative to study phenomena – research by sampling, as sometimes there may occur situations when exhaustive statistical research is impossible to be carried out or the costs for achieving the goal of such a thorough research would be too high. Also, for the sake of clarity, we find it necessary to resort to a methodological approach, as it is both didactic and practical.
