| The SURVEYSELECT Procedure |
Displayed Output
By default, PROC SURVEYSELECT displays two tables that summarize
the sample selection. You can suppress display of these
tables by using the NOPRINT option.
PROC SURVEYSELECT creates an output data set that contains
the units selected for the sample. The procedure does not
display this output data set. Use PROC PRINT, PROC REPORT,
or any other SAS reporting tool to display the output data set.
PROC SURVEYSELECT displays the following information in the
"Sample Selection Method" table:
- Selection Method
- Size Measure variable, if you specify a SIZE statement
- Minimum Size Measure, if you specify the MINSIZE=min
option
- Maximum Size Measure, if you specify the MAXSIZE=max
option
- Certainty Size Measure, if you specify the CERTSIZE=certain
option
- Strata Variables, if you specify a STRATA statement
- Control Variables, if you specify a CONTROL statement
- type of Control Sorting, Serpentine or Nested, if you specify a
CONTROL statement
PROC SURVEYSELECT displays the following information in the
"Sample Selection Summary" table:
- Input Data Set name
- Sorted Data Set name, if you specify the OUTSORT= option
- Random Number Seed
- Sample Size or Stratum Sample Size, if you specify the SAMPSIZE=n
option
- Sample Size Data Set, if you specify the SAMPSIZE=SAS-data-set
option
- Sampling Rate or Stratum Sampling Rate, if you specify the SAMPRATE=r
option
- Sampling Rate Data Set, if you specify the SAMPRATE=SAS-data-set
option
- Minimum Sample Size or Stratum Minimum Sample Size, if you
specify the NMIN= option with the SAMPRATE= option
- Maximum Sample Size or Stratum Maximum Sample Size, if you
specify the NMAX= option with the SAMPRATE= option
- Selection Probability, if you specify METHOD=SRS, METHOD=SYS, or METHOD=SEQ
and do not specify a STRATA statement
- Expected Number of Hits, if you specify METHOD=URS and do not specify a STRATA statement
- Sampling Weight for equal probability selection methods
(METHOD=SRS, METHOD=URS, METHOD=SYS, METHOD=SEQ)
if you do not specify a STRATA statement
- Number of Strata, if you specify a STRATA statement
- Number of Replicates, if you specify the REP= option
- Total Sample Size, if you specify a STRATA statement or the
REP= option
- Output Data Set name
