I discover that some evaluation reports about youth services have listed standard deviation and the mean scores. Could you please kindly give me a clue about what the standard deviation refers to?

When I read an online report about youth unemployment in Hong Kong, I found it has used data from the Census and Statistics Department. Is it an example of using secondary data?

Speaking of young night drifters, I found it is more suitable to use qualitative methods to explore their inner experiences. How do you think of it?

Hello, I am thinking of surveying young night drifters using probability sampling. I notice that The Social Welfare Department has different working teams in each district. So, can I use multistage sampling?
