Key Concepts

Population

The population refers to the entire group of subjects or items that are of interest in a study. In research methodology, this is the complete set from which conclusions will be drawn. In a general study setup related to quality control, the population would be all items produced under the specific conditions being evaluated.

Sample

The sample is a smaller, representative subset of the population that is selected for the actual analysis. In studies involving quality control or calibration assessments, the sample is chosen randomly to ensure that it reliably reflects the characteristics of the entire population, thereby enabling the researcher to infer conclusions about the overall production process.
