Stratified sampling

You are a part of an agency that sent out a youth survey to a nationally representative sample of youths, ages 14 to 20 years old. The uploaded dataset, youth_survey, tracks the Age, Height (in inches), Weight (in pounds), Gender, and the self-reported How would you describe your weight? multiple choice answers for the individuals.

In this exercise, you will create a stratified, weighted sample of 1% of respondents from the dataset. pandas has been imported as pd.

The dataset contains information on all respondents' genders, so you will be using the Gender column as the stratifying column.

What is survey data, and how do we determine which statistical test to use to analyze the data? To answer this, you’ll be able to define all sorts of survey data types, encounter important concepts like descriptive and inferential statistics, and visualize survey data to determine the appropriate statistical modeling technique needed. In doing so, you will know how to best qualitatively and quantitatively define the trends and insights you come across in surveys.

Now it’s time to understand the difference between descriptive and inferential statistics concerning survey data analysis with some real-life examples. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll further interpret the meaning of different variables, key measures such as central tendency and zscore, and interpret results for actionable steps.
