How should the members of a sample be chosen

They must be randomly chosen, meaning that each member of the larger population has an equal chance of being chosen. They must be large enough so as not to skew the results. The optimal size of the sample group depends on the precise degree of confidence required for making an inference. Simple random sampling is the basic sampling technique where we select a group of subjects (a sample) for study from a larger group (a population). Each individual is chosen entirely by chance and each member of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample.

Hope this helps... Stay safe and have a great day/night!!! :D
