Types of Sampling

This is the most basic method of drawing a probability sample.

• stratified sampling

• systematic sampling

• random sampling

• conveniene sampling

It is obtained by selecting every kth in the list.

• stratified sampling

• random sampling

• systematic sampling

• snowball sampling

This sampling technique does not rely on randomization

• probability sampling

• non-probability sampling

• slovin's formula

• data collection

The sample is obtained from non-overlapping groups called 'strata'

• Stratified sampling

• random sampling

• systematic sampling

• cluster sampling

You take the sample from naturally occurring groups in your population. What do you call this naturally occuring groups?

• Stratum

• Representatives

• Cluster

• Sample

It is a process of picking out people in the most convenient and fastest way to get reactions/responses immediately

• snowball sampling

• cluster sampling

• purposive sampling

• convenience sampling

It is based on certain criteria laid down by the researcher.

• convenience sampling

• purposive sampling

• snowball sampling

• quota sampling

This technique is used in the situations where the population is completely unknown and rare. 

• snowball sampling

• quota sampling

• systematic sampling

• convenience sampling

This sampling technique uses on randominzation

• non-probability sampling

• probability sampling

• slovin's formula

• sample size

When the researcher picks respondents according to what will favor his/her result, this is called:

• sampling technique

• sampling bias

• getting the sample size

• identifying the population
