This document discusses probability proportional to size (PPS) sampling. It defines PPS sampling as assigning selection probabilities to population units based on an auxiliary variable that is correlated with the study variable, such as using agricultural area to determine selection probabilities when surveying crop yield. The document outlines when PPS sampling should be used, its objectives, advantages like improved precision and inclusion of rare groups, and disadvantages like additional complexity. It describes two methods for sampling with replacement in PPS: the cumulative total method and Lahiri's method.
