SAMPLING

MEANING
•Sampling is the technique of selecting a group out of the population to derive
statistical inferences from them.
•data is then used to estimate the characteristics of the whole population.
•Sampling Methods are used by researchers where they do not need to
research the entire population to collect data.
•time-convenient and a cost-effective method.
TWO TYPE OF
SAMPLING
Probability sampling
involves random selection, allowing you to make strong statistical inferences
about the whole group.
Non-probability sampling
involves non-random selection based on convenience or other criteria,
allowing you to easily collect data.
PROBABILITY SAMPLING
everyone in the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample.
Simple random sampling
People (or things) are selected at random, and each one has the same chance of
being chosen.

For example, if there are 100 buildings and you wanted to estimate the average
number of floors per building, you might randomly select 20 buildings for your
sample.
Systematic sampling
The first person is selected randomly, and then a fixed interval is used to select
additional individuals.
For example, in a population of 1,000 people, the first selected individual is number
2 (shown in blue).
, every fourth person is selected, such as numbers 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, etc., until you reach
your sample size of 100 individuals.
Cluster sampling:
population is huge or spread out over a large area. People are randomly selected
from groups or areas, such as states.
For example, to study a country’s population, 100 individuals may be randomly
selected from larger states, and 50 from the smaller ones.
Stratified sampling:
The population is divided into smaller groups, or “strata,” that share a characteristic. People
from each smaller group are randomly selected to form the sample.

For example, if we want to know the top favorite food among students in a school, we can
divide the students into strata based on their grade, and then choose a few students randomly
from each grade to be in our sample.
NON PROBABILITY SAMPLING
selecting individuals based on convenience or our best judgment. Not everyone in the
population has an equal chance of being selected.

Snowball sampling

start with a small group who meet certain criteria (or standards), and then ask them
to refer other people who also meet the criteria.

This method is often used to study hard-to-reach populations, or to identify people with
rare characteristics.
Quota sampling

The population is divided into groups based on shared characteristics, such as gender or
age. A proportional, representative sample is selected from each group.

For example, if a company has 100 employees, with 40 being men and 60 being women,
they might select 4 men and 6 women to be in the sample.

Convenience sampling

If you only have access to a certain number of people, you might choose this method.
Who is available to participate in your study? While convenience sampling isn’t as
reliable, it’s more convenient our time and resources might be limited.
