It is understood by population to a group of people, animals or things that share similar characteristics to each other and different in relation to other populations. The term is used in the field of statistics and is used to carry out anthropological, sociological, market research, advertising studies.

A population can share some of the following characteristics:

• Weather. Given that the characteristics (what a population values, likes or admires or, on the contrary, rejects) are traversed by the variable of time (and the values ​​change and are modified), a population is in the same historical or specific time.
• Space. Every population must have a delimited space.
• Age or gender. A population can be comprised of an age range or a common gender.
• Likes / preferences. Certain populations can be delimited by their common preferences.

Characteristics of all populations

There are two conditions for a population to be named as such. These are:

• Homogeneity. Every population must inevitably share characteristics of similarity among its members. For example: Different applicants for a job are a population, who share the intention of applying for that position but who have different characteristics (age, gender, training, nationality, etc.).
• Heterogeneity. A given population must be heterogeneous in relation to another population. For example: People of Chinese origin living in the United States are similar to each other but different from other populations.

Sample from a population

In statistical terms, the sample of a population is used as representative of its total. In this way, it follows that if certain characteristics are present in a portion of the population, then the total must be similar. When the total of a given population is taken, the study is called a census.
