Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Attribute sampling is a technique used to estimate the rate of occurrence of a certain characteristic or attribute in a population. It involves randomly selecting a sample from the population and then determining whether each item in the sample possesses the characteristic of interest or not. The results of the sample can then be used to draw conclusions about the entire population. The other options, dollar unit sampling, random sampling, and haphazard sampling, are not designed to estimate rates of occurrence in the same way as attribute sampling.
