Given below are two statements:

Statement I: In the systematic sampling, one can choose units directly from the sampling frame, without opting for a table of random numbers.

Statement II: The Simple random sample is the most primary form of non-probability sample.

In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below: 

In research, a sample is a subset of the population that is selected to represent the entire group for the purpose of data collection and analysis.

 Key PointsStatement I: In the systematic sampling, one can choose units directly from the sampling frame, without opting for a table of random numbers.

• Systematic sampling is a probability sampling method that involves selecting units from a list or sampling frame using a systematic pattern, such as every kth unit.
• This method does not require a table of random numbers to select units, as the sampling interval can be determined based on the size of the sampling frame and the desired sample size.
• Systematic sampling can be more efficient than simple random sampling, as it requires less time and effort to select the sample.

This statement is correct.

Statement II: The Simple random sample is the most primary form of non-probability sample.

• Simple random sampling is a type of probability sampling method, not a non-probability sampling method.
• In simple random sampling, each unit in the sampling frame has an equal chance of being selected for the sample, and the selection of each unit is independent of the other units.
• Non-probability sampling methods, on the other hand, do not involve random selection and do not guarantee that every unit in the sampling frame has an equal chance of being selected.

This statement is incorrect. 

Therefore, the most appropriate answer from the given options is "Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect."
