Sampling (statistics) | Experimental bias

Sampling bias

In statistics, sampling bias is a bias in which a sample is collected in such a way that some members of the intended population have a lower or higher sampling probability than others. It results in a biased sample of a population (or non-human factors) in which all individuals, or instances, were not equally likely to have been selected. If this is not accounted for, results can be erroneously attributed to the phenomenon under study rather than to the method of sampling. Medical sources sometimes refer to sampling bias as ascertainment bias. Ascertainment bias has basically the same definition, but is still sometimes classified as a separate type of bias. (Wikipedia).

Statistics Lesson #4: Sources of Bias

This video is for my College Algebra and Statistics students (and anyone else who may find it helpful). I define bias, and we look at examples of different types of bias, including voluntary response bias, leading question bias, and sampling bias. I hope this is helpful! Timestamps: 0:00
