Study Notes

Types of Sampling

  • There are two main types of sampling: non-probability sampling and probability sampling.

Non-Probability Sampling

  • Snowball Sampling: a sampling method that involves recruiting participants through referrals.
  • Convenience Sampling: a sampling method that involves selecting participants based on their availability and ease of access.
  • Quota Sampling: a sampling method that involves selecting participants based on pre-determined criteria to ensure a representative sample.

Probability Sampling

  • Simple Random Sampling: a sampling method that involves randomly selecting participants from a population using a randomized process.
  • Systematic Sampling: a sampling method that involves selecting every nth individual from a population list.
  • Stratified Sampling: a sampling method that involves dividing a population into subgroups and randomly selecting participants from each subgroup.
  • Cluster Sampling: a sampling method that involves dividing a population into smaller groups (clusters) and randomly selecting a few clusters for the sample.

Learn about the two main categories of sampling techniques: probability sampling and non-probability sampling. This quiz covers different types of sampling methods, including snowball sampling and stratified sampling.
