Hi friend! I understand that face-to-face is a recommended way of data collection by lots of evaluators, but it is time-consuming and limited in COVID-19. I just wonder if I could survey by phone instead?

When discussing sampling, the word “element” baffles me. Consider the scenario where I survey Hong Kong’s household income. Should I use the household or the individual as the unit?
