SAMPLING

1: Exploring Sampling Concepts: Answer the following Questions:


• Define population and sample.
• Explain why sampling is used instead of studying the entire population.
• Give an example of when you might use sampling in your everyday life
2: Read the information sheet about sampling (attached below)
3: Create your sampling plan on your research

• Determine sample size (e.g., 15 students for in-depth interviews).
• Implement the plan: Write down how you will select and approach your respondents.
4: What I Have Learned: Answer the following questions.
• Why is sampling crucial in research?
• What challenges might occur if sampling is done incorrectly?
• How will you apply these sampling techniques to your own research?

INFORMATION SHEET SAMPLING

Population - the complete group of people, animals or objects that have the same characteristics
that the research needs Sample - a group of individuals that represent the population. The process
of choosing a sample is called sampling.

Steps in Sampling:
1. Identify the Population of Interest: Define the population relevant to your research.
2. Specify a Sampling Frame: Narrow down the population to a specific group.
3. Specify a Sampling Method: Choose a method that suits your research.
1. Purposive Sampling. This is the most common sampling procedure, wherein
participants are selected according to pre-selected criteria based on the particular research
question. To perform this sampling, a researcher begins with specific perspectives in mind
that he or she wishes to examine and then seeks out research participants who cover that
full range of perspectives.
2. Quota Sampling. In this sampling procedure, participant quotas are preset prior to
sampling. To perform this sampling, the researcher gathers data from only those participants
who meet certain characteristics that may include things such as age, place of residence,
gender, class, profession, marital status, etc.
3. Snowball Sampling. This sampling procedure is also called chain referral sampling.
To perform this sampling, the researcher recruits study participants by asking prior
participants to refer others who may be able to potentially contribute or participate in the
study. Thus, the researcher’s sample builds and becomes larger as the study continues,
much as a snowball builds and becomes larger as it rolls through the snow. This method
often helps researchers find and recruit participants that may otherwise be hard to reach.
4. Convenience Sampling. This sampling procedure is also called haphazard sampling
and is most useful in exploratory research. To perform this sampling, a researcher simply
collects data from those people or other relevant elements to which he or she has most
convenient access.
4. Determine Sample Size: Decide the number of respondents.
5. Implement the Plan: Select and interview participants, record data carefully.
