- Abstract: Purpose:In large-scale surveys, it is often necessary to distribute a preset sample size among a number ofstrata. Researchers must make a decision between prioritizing overall representativeness or precision ofstratum estimates. Hence, I evaluated different sample allocation strategies based on stratum size.Methods:The strategies evaluated herein included allocation proportional to stratum population; equalsample for all strata; and proportional to the natural logarithm, cubic root, and square root of the stratumpopulation. This study considered the fact that, from a preset sample size, the dispersion index of stratumsampling fractions is correlated with the population estimator error and the dispersion index of stratum-specific sampling errors would measure the inequality in precision distribution. Identification of abalanced and efficient strategy was based on comparing those both dispersion indices.Results:Balance and efficiency of the strategies changed depending on overall sample size. As the sampleto be distributed increased, the most efficient allocation strategies were equal sample for each stratum;proportional to the logarithm, to the cubic root, to square root; and that proportional to the stratumpopulation, respectively.Conclusions:Depending on sample size, each of the strategies evaluated could be considered in opti-mizing the sample to keep both overall representativeness and stratum-specific precision
