1. Random Sampling – a types of sampling in which every member of the population has an
equal chance of being selected.
Ex. The population of 50 students of BS in Accountancy The probability of being chosen is
1/50 or .02%

2. Stratified sampling - a type of probability sampling involves the division of a population into
smaller subgroups known as strata. It uses proportional representation. The term stratification

selected at a regular interval.
Ex. Selecting a student who arrive at DBPMCF every 20 mins

4. Cluster Sampling - a type of probability sampling in which you divide a population into
clusters and then randomly select some of these clusters as your sample.
Ex. Dividing the population of college students of DBPMCF with their respective courses
(BSA, BSED, BEED, AB POLSCI AND COMMERCE) and then selecting from the courses
to be the sample size.
