    Sample Design and Evaluation

    Sample design plays an important role in a variety of analyses, and Christensen Associates knows how to get results that are representative of the relevant population. We have extensive experience in designing samples and evaluating sample designs in a variety of contexts, including customer surveys, field reviews, site surveys, energy utility load research samples, and program evaluations.

    We carefully study the population of interest to determine the most efficient sample design to meet the desired level of precision, accounting for the client’s resource constraints as needed. Where necessary, we stratify the sample to improve the efficiency and representativeness of the sample design.

    Christensen Associates has applied the same methods to evaluate existing sample designs. For example, an electric utility may want to evaluate whether its load research sample requires changes in order to continue to be representative of its customers.

    "Jeff and Jeremy, The jury returned a verdict last night and found no 'good cause' but awarded the plaintiffs just $287,400 of the approximately $2.4 million they were seeking. Our clients are happy with this result. Since the 'win' related to damages, the two of you get a lot of credit. In eyeballing the results, it is clear that the jury decided to award each Pro lost income damages equal to one year of income based on your annual income amounts."
