Multiplicity sampling is a probability sampling technique that is used to enhance an existing sampling frame by adding elements through a form of network sampling. It is especially useful when surveying for rare attributes (e.g. rare hereditary diseases).

For example, persons can be linked to a specific household by familial relationship among persons residing in the same housing unit. A counting rule identifies the linkage between population elements and frame units.
