✦ Synopsis

The procedure of determining the optimum sample size in each stratum in stratified sampling for several va.riables is expressed and solved as a multistage decision process through dynamic programming. Using data published elsewhere, the dynamic programming approach was shown to give results identical to those obtained by some other already suggested approaches. The advantage is that dynamic programming can more easily handle problenls involving several 'strata and/or vbriables.

Stratification is a widely used strategy in empirical research to improve efficiency of the sampling design. One concern of stratification is that ignoring it on analysis may bias the relationship between variables. A weighted analysis can only be carried out when sampling weights are known. When th
