Abstract: | This article develops a new generalized formula to compute the inclusion probabilities of a median-ranked set sample in a finite population setting. The use of this formula is illustrated in a numerical example. Furthermore, the inclusion probabilities of a median-ranked set sample is compared with the inclusion probabilities of ranked set and simple random samples. |
