    Survey Frame:, Also Called The Sampling Frame, Is The Tool Used To Gain Access To The Population. There Are Two

    Uploaded by

    There are two types of survey frames: list frames and area frames. A list frame directly provides access to individuals through names and addresses, while an area frame indirectly provides access by first selecting geographic areas and then finding individuals within each selected area. A good survey frame should be complete, up-to-date, and only include members of the target population to avoid sampling errors and ensure an accurate representation of the population.

    TheSURVEY FRAME, also called the sampling frame, is the tool used to gain access to the population.

    There are two


    types of frames: list frames and area frames. A list frame is a list of names and addresses that provide direct access to
    'individuals' (e.g., a list of hospitals, a list of restaurants, a list of students at a university). Area frames are a list of
    geographic areas that provide indirect access to individuals (e.g., the farms in a village, or neighborhoods in a city). This
    type of access is called indirect because first, a list of geographic areas must be selected and then, access to
    individuals within each selected area must be worked out.
    For instance, suppose that the aim is surveying a rural town to see what percentage of residents are farmers. If there
    was an area frame, it would enable locating which roads to visit, but one would still have to find out the names and
    addresses of the residents on each road.
    When there is no single frame that is appropriate, multiple frames can be used. Some sampling techniques use both
    types of frames.
    A good frame should be complete and up-to-date; no member of the survey population should be excluded from the
    frame or duplicated on the frame (represented more than once); and no unit that is not part of the population (e.g.,
    deceased persons) should be on the frame. The frame chosen will impact the selected survey population. For instance,
    if a list of telephone numbers is used to select a sample of households, then all households without telephones are
    excluded from the survey population.
    SURVEY UNITS
    There are three types of units that have to be accurately identified in order to avoid problems during the selection, data
    collection and data analysis stages.
    1.

    The sampling unit is part of the frame and therefore subject to being selected

    2.

    The respondent unit or reporting unit provides the information needed by the survey

    3.

    The unit of reference or unit of analysisthe unit about which information is providedis used to analyze the

    survey results.
    For example, in a survey about newborns in a certain town, the sampling unit might be a household, the reporting unit
    one of the parents or a legal guardian, and the unit of reference the baby.
    The sampling units may differ depending on the frame used. This is why the survey population, survey frame and survey
    units are defined in conjunction with one another.
