the population is divided into several strata or sub-groups, and samples are
taken from each stratum in such a way that the total sample represents the
entire population.
Cochran (1977), stratified sampling is a sampling technique that
involves dividing the population into non-overlapping subgroups or strata, and
then selecting a random sample from each stratum in proportion to the size of
the stratum.
Sarndal et al. (2003), stratified sampling is a technique for
selecting a sample from a population by dividing the population into subgroups
or strata, each of which is homogeneous with respect to the characteristic of
