Systematic sampling requires a random starting point to avoid bias and a skip interval to ensure that each member of the population has an equal chance of being selected. Random-digit dialing and random-plus dialing are techniques used in survey research, but not specifically for systematic sampling. Systematically partitioning data is a technique used for dividing a sample into subgroups, but it is not a requirement for systematic sampling.
