Population Size, N = 500

Sample Size, n = 100
 1) Probability Sampling Methods
a) Simple Random Sampling Method:
Population
N= 500

Sampling units are randomly selected from population

Sample
n=100
 1) Probability Sampling Methods
a) Simple Random Sampling Method:
• Samples are selected randomly from Population
• Randomness means without any
logic/system/pattern
• All the units have equal chance
of selection
• Methods:
o Lottery Method
o Random Number Table:
Tippet, Fisher

 1) Probability Sampling Methods
b) Stratified Random Sampling Method:
• Population is divided (Stratified) into homogeneous groups called as
Strata
• Homogeneity within Group
• Heterogeneity amongst Groups
• Samples are selected from all the strata randomly
• Methods for Deciding Strata Sample Size:
 Proportionate Method
o Directly Proportional
o Inversely Proportional
 Disproportionate Method
• Most Accurate Method
• Requires More Resources

• Clusters are randomly selected from the population

• All Units of Selected Cluster become part of Sample
• Non-Selected Clusters do not become part of Sample

 1) Probability Sampling Methods
c) Cluster Sampling Method:
• Population is divided into groups called as Clusters
• Heterogeneity within Group
• Homogeneity amongst Groups
• Clusters are selected Randomly
• All the Units from the selected Clusters are selected as
Sample
• Not a Single Unit from remaining clusters is selected
• Most Cost Efficient Method
• Less Accurate

d) Area Sampling Method:
• Version of Cluster Random Sampling
• Population is divided into groups/clusters
based on Geographic Area

e) Systematic Sampling Method:
01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10, Population
11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,

.
491, 492, 493, …..498. 499, 500
• Calculate: Sampling Interval=N/n = 5
• Select first unit from first 5 units Randomly (Say it is 3)
• Add Sampling Interval to Selected Unit to find Next Sampling Unit

03,08,13,18,23,28….

 1) Probability Sampling Methods
5) Systematic Sampling Method:
• Both System and Randomness exist together
• Calculate Sampling Interval (SI)
• SI= Population Size/Sample Size = ‘n’
• Select one unit randomly from first ‘n’ units
from sampling frame
• Go on adding ‘n’ (SI) (System) to the
previously
selected unit to find out next unit
 1) Probability Sampling Methods
f ) Multistage Sampling Method:
• Sample is drawn for Large Population
Stage wise
• For different stages one can use different
Sampling Method
• Combination of various Probability Sampling
Methods

 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
a) Convenience Sampling Method:
Population
N= 500

Sampling units are selected from population based on the

Convenience of the Researcher

Sample
n=100
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
a) Convenience Sampling Method:
• Select sample based on Convenience of Researcher
• Convenience can be of
o Time
o Distance
o Familiarity etc.
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
b) Judgemental/Purposive Sampling Method:
Population
N= 500

Sampling units are selected from population based on the

Judgement of the Researcher

Sample
n=100
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
b) Judgemental/Purposive Sampling Method:
• Select sample based on Purpose/Judgement
of Researcher
• Researcher needs to have knowledge,
experience
and expertise to exercise Judgement
• Subjective nature

c) Quota Sampling Method:

Population
Sector Sector
Strata Strata Size:
N= 500
Size: 300 200 (40%)
(60%)
Sampling units are selected from each strata of
the population based on the Judgement of
Researcher

60 Sample Size:
(60%) 40 (40%)
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
c) Quota Sampling Method:
• Version of Judgemental Sampling Method
• Similar to Stratified Random Sampling Method
• Population is divided into homogeneous groups
• Homogeneity within Group
• Heterogeneity amongst Groups
• For each Group Sample Size (Quota) is decided
based on the proportion of the group in the
population
• Samples are selected from all the groups based on
Judgement of the Researcher
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
d) Snowball Sampling Method:
Population
N= ?
A,B,C,D

• Initially select those units whom you know

• Collect data from selected units and in the end ask for references
• Select references taken from previously selected sample to get new
sample
A – E, F
B – G,H,I
C- J Sample
D- K,L,M…
n=?
 2) Non-Probability Sampling Methods
d) Snowball Sampling Method:
• Used when Sampling Frame is not available
• Uses characteristic of Snowball
• Initially select those units whom you know
• Collect data from selected units and in the
end ask for at least 2 references
• Go on selecting references taken from previously
selected sample to get new sample
• Sample Size go on increasing as and
when researcher meets respondents
