Study Notes
Overview of Research Participation Gathering
- Initial participants were gathered through recommendations, leading to further involvement of additional individuals.
- Total of 23 participants were added through word-of-mouth from existing participants who passed the NCII assessment.
Probability Sampling
- Every member of the population has a chance of being selected for the study.
Stratified Random Sampling
- This method divides the population into smaller subgroups known as strata.
- Also referred to as proportional or quota random sampling, ensuring representation from various sections of the population.
Sample Calculation
- Total population = 450; determined sample size = 212 using Slovin’s formula.
- Group distribution:
- Group 1: 280 participants, selected sample size = 132.
- Group 2: 100 participants, selected sample size = 47.
- Group 3: 70 participants, selected sample size = 33.
Proportional Representation
- Group population percentages calculated:
- Group 1: 280 x 62%
- Group 2: 100 x 22%
- Group 3: 70 x 16%
Simple vs. Stratified Random Sampling
- Simple random sample represents the entire population without subgroups.
- Stratified random sample segments the population into groups based on shared characteristics for improved representativeness.
Application of Slovin's Formula
- Example of a study with a town population of 750 residents indicates the usage of Slovin's formula to determine sample size with a margin of error of 0.01.
- In a population of 8,000 students, a margin of error of 10% also allows for sample size determination through Slovin's formula.
- For a population of 2,500 individuals with a 5% margin of error, sample size can again be determined using the same formula.
Case Study: Residents of Sitio Dalawang Kawayan
- Researchers conducted a survey on the acceptance of an innovated pandesal among local residents.
- Secured permission and information from the barangay captain about residents aged 18 and above, totaling 450 residents.
- Sample size of 212 was calculated and participants were selected randomly using a fishbowl method.
Case Study: SHS Graduates in Tanay
- Researchers targeted TESDA NCII assessors and passers to establish connections with more candidates, highlighting the role of networking and recommendations in participant selection.
