Abstract

An estimation of the population parameters in finite and fixed populations is taken into account. The estimation is focused on the population average of the variable under study. The values of the variable under study are observed in random samples that are selected according to preassigned sampling designs and sampling schemes. We assume that the values of auxiliary variables are observed in the whole population. The population average is estimated by means of a sampling strategy, which is the pairing of an estimator and a sampling design. Properties of the basic strategies are presented.
