population (context-dependent!!)
المجموعة المدروسة في بحث إحصائي


Explanation:
This is the normal term I have used in many research papers I have worked on or translated.
Webster's Online states (especially the second):
A set of all possible measurements. This is an ideal that can only be approached. Source: European Union. (references)
The aggregate of all units, finite or infinite, forming the subject of study. Source: European Union. (references).

Normally a sample (عينة) is taken to carry out the assumptions of teh study etc.
