Concept and basics of probability sampling methods One of the most important issues in researches is selecting an appropriate sample. Among sampling methods‚ probability sample are of much importance since most statistical tests fit on to this type of sampling method. Representativeness and generalize-ability will be achieved well with probable samples from a population‚ although the matter of low feasibility of a probable sampling method or high cost‚ don’t allow us to use it and shift us to the
