<p>Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan menginterpretasi pengaruh model kepercayaan publik terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak di Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan. Pendekatan penelitian menggunakan analisis kuantitatif dengan metode survey di tiga area Kantor Pelayanan Pajak yaitu Makassar Selatan, Maros, dan Palopo. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah wajib pajak  yang telah teregistrasi sebagai wajib pajak, baik pajak orang pribadi dan pajak badan sebanyak 2400 orang. Sampel penelitian menggunakan multistage cluster sampling methods untuk memastikan keterwakilan populasi. Penarikan sampel menggunakan metode stratified random sampling terhadap tiga area penelitian. Rumus Slovin digunakan untuk menetapkan jumlah sampel  sebesar 20% dengan pertimbangan karena populasi yang relatif besar dimana persentase kelonggaran ketelitian kesalahan pengambilan sampel yang masih  bisa ditolerir sebesar α=0,05. Dengan dasar tersebut, maka sampel dalam penelitian ditetapkan sebanyak 400 responden. Teknik analisis data menggunakan teknik analisis kuantitatif dengan menggunakan persamaan model struktural. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kepercayaan publik berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepatuhan wajib  pajak. Kepercayaan publik berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak melalui kinerja pelayanan pajak. Variabel kinerja pelayanan pajak berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak. Faktor pemerintah, faktor resiko, dan faktor kontekstual berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kepercayaan publik dalam meningkatkan kepatuhan wajib pajak di Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan. </p><p><strong>Kata kunci : Kepercayaan publik, kinerja pelayanan pajak, kepatuhan wajib pajak</strong></p>

This chapter introduces the specialized techniques necessary for analyzing data that have been gathered in a complex or multistage survey sample. The chapter details the methods most commonly used to collect complex survey data and then explains the specific statistical tools that must be employed to correctly analyze complex survey data. First, an overview of the various types of sampling methods is presented, beginning with simple random sampling and moving through other methods to finally discuss the commonly employed research techniques of cluster sampling. The chapter continues with a discussion of survey weights—what they mean and how they are derived. The chapter concludes with software-based suggestions on the proper analysis of survey data.

This investigation was aimed to study the mental health levels among special education school teachers and its relation to their sex.Here, a sample of 120 special education school teachers (60 males and 60 females) was selected from 15 special schools of Delhi, Haryana and Rajasthan states through simple random, purposive, convenience and cluster sampling methods. The survey questionnaire ‘Mental Health Inventory’by Dr. A.K. Shrivastava and Dr. Jagdish (1981) was used for measuring levels of mental health among special education school teachers. Percentage analysis, t-test were employed for data analysis. Mental health levels of most of special school teachers (i.e. 82.50%) were found either average or near average. A little percentage was found to at either very good (7.50%) or very poor (10.00%) levels of mental health. Besides, a significance of difference between mean MHI scores of male and female special education school teachers (t= 3.72, which is significant at 0.01 level of significance) was found. Higher mean MHI score (138.20) for female special education school teachers than their male counterparts (129.15) indicated that the female special education school teachers were enjoying better mental health than the male teachers.

Background: Sampling methods are one of the main components of each research. Familiarity with a variety of sampling methods is essential for researchers. Objective: The main purpose of this study was to teach different probabilistic and non-probabilistic sampling methods to improve the knowledge of researchers in conducting more accurate research. Methods: In this tutorial article, useful information about each sampling method, as well as how to properly use each method and its strengths and weaknesses are provided. Results: Five cases of probabilistic sampling methods and four cases of non-probabilistic sampling methods that are common are mentioned. Probabilistic sampling included simple random sampling, stratified random sampling, cluster sampling, systematic random sampling, and multi-stage random sampling. In addition to introducing each method, its strengths and weaknesses are also mentioned. Conclusion: Probabilistic sampling methods despite limiting assumptions provide more reliable results. Therefore, if it is possible, researchers should use probabilistic sampling methods to increase the accuracy of the study.

Sample surveys are an essential approach used in veterinary research and investigation. A sample obtained from a well-designed sampling process along with robust data analysis can provide valuable insight into the attributes of the target population. Two approaches, design-based or model-based, can be used as inferential frameworks for analysing survey data. Compared to the model-based approach, the design-based approach is usually more straightforward and directly makes inferences about the finite target population (such as the dairy cows in a herd or dogs in a region) rather than an infinite superpopulation. In this paper, the concept of probability sampling and the design-based approach is briefly reviewed, followed by a discussion of the estimations and their justifications in the context of several different elementary sampling methods, including simple random sampling, stratified random sampling, and one-stage cluster sampling. Finally, a concrete example of a complex survey design (involving multistage sampling and stratification) is demonstrated, illustrating how finding unbiased estimators and their corresponding variance formulas for a complex survey builds on the techniques used in elementary sampling methods.

Based on two species of Coastal Mangrove in Hainan of China, Sonneratia Apetala Buch-Ham and Sonneratia caseoli, we estimated the density of the two species to evaluate the efficiency of adaptive cluster sampling (ACS), simple random sampling (SRS) and traditional systematic sampling (SYS). Our initial experimental designs for ACS consisted of 5 unit areas, 6 initial sampling proportions, 4 initial sample sizes and 5 criterion values in 1,000&nbsp;repetitions. From the aspect of factors influencing efficiency, we analysed the efficiency of ACS in various designs. We also compared the efficiencies of the three methods on the indexes of the relative error, the variance of density estimator and the relative sampling efficiencies. We found that ACS yielded smaller variance than the traditional sampling methods. ACS was a powerful sampling method when a population was spatially aggregated. We also determined the optimum unit area for the two species studied using the two estimators (HT and HH) of adaptive cluster sampling. They were 20&nbsp;m<sup>2 </sup>(2 &times; 10 m), 15 m<sup>2 </sup>(3 &times; 5 m) for S. Apetala Buch-Ham and 25 m<sup>2 </sup>(5 &times; 5 m), 15 m<sup>2 </sup>(3 &times; 5 m) for S. caseolari, respectively.

The cervical screening status of small and geographically diverse migrant communities is particularly difficult to assess. Usual approaches to migrant research such as telephone surveys using ethnically identifiable names or cluster sampling might not be feasible. Snowball sampling, although sometimes criticised for problems of inference with non-probability samples, might be the only cost-effective and viable alternative. Snowball sampling is the method of choice by sociologists studying networks and group interactions and has been shown to yield similar estimates of attitudes and demographic characteristics as probability sampling methods (Rumbaut, Chavez, Moser, Pickwell, & Wishik, 1988; Welch, 1975).
