Sampling frame: list of all units Biased sample does not represent population
Representative sample: a sample that reflects the population accurately - some groups are over-represented; others are under-represented
Probability sample: sample selected using random selection - non-probability sampling, inadequate sample frame, non-response
Non-probability sample: sample selected not using random selection method Probability sampling reduces sampling error and allows for inferential statistics
Sampling Sampling
3 types of probability sampling
Types of samples:
Simple random sample
Probability sample
- Simple random sample Stratified random sample
Non-probability sample
- Convenience sample
- Judgment sample
- Quota sample
Each unit has an equal probability of selection Starting point is to categorize population into ‘strata’ (e.g. relevant divisions, or
departments of companies)
Sampling fraction: n/N, where n = sample size and N = population size
The sample can be proportionately representative of each stratum
List all units and number them consecutively
Then, randomly select within each category as for a simple random sample
Use random numbers table to select units
Sampling Sampling
3 types of probability sampling
Sampling plan:
Multi-stage cluster sample
Sampling unit: Who is to be surveyed?
Useful for widely dispersed populations
Sample size: How many people should be
First, divide population into groups (clusters) of units, for example, geographic surveyed?
areas or industries.
Sampling procedure: How should the respondents
Sub-clusters (sub-groups) can then be sampled from these clusters, if be chosen?
appropriate.
Now randomly select units from each (sub)cluster.
