Practical Research 1
Module 2
ACTIVITIES

1. Answer the following questions:

a. What is the difference between sample and population? - The whole group
about whom you wish to make conclusions is referred to as a population. A
sample is a subset of the population from which you will gather data. The
sample size is always smaller than the population's overall size. A population
in research does not usually relate to humans.

b. Some people have argued that no population can ever be

studied in its entirety. Would you agree? Why or why not? - I agree that no single
population can ever be researched completely. It is technically conceivable, but it is
tiresome and would consume much too much of our time. There is really too much
variation to incorporate in a study. Some data may be duplicated within the
population, thus it's a huge no in terms of convenience.

2. Determine the population and sample of each research studies below.

3. Choose a qualitative research design then think of a certain research

topic using this research design. Determine your population, sample
and effective sample size. Use the format below as your guide.

Research Topic: During the COVID-19 epidemic in the Philippines, a
phenomenological study of the lives of the less fortunate in Nabunturan was
conducted.
Population: All of Nabunturan's less fortunate residents.
