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.
