Exercise #3: Sampling Plans, Design, and Techniques

I. Identification:
1. It is the process of getting the number of samples from the populations.
2. It is the smaller group of people that will be the respondents of the study.
3. It is the larger group of people intended for the study.
4. This kind of sampling gives an equal opportunity for every member of the population to
be the selected as part of the sample.
5. This type of non-probability sampling requires the researcher to choose the respondent’s
based on their knowledge about the study being conducted.
6. This type of probability sampling requires the researcher to group the entire population
based on their characteristics.
7. This is the formula that the researcher can use in computing for the number of samples
needed in a certain study.
8. It is a combination of stratified and cluster sampling.
9. It is a detailed outline that gives information about the sampling design and technique
that will be conducted in the study.
10. It is also known as accidental sampling.

II. Compute the number of samples needed for each population. Use the Slovin’s Formula.
(Solution at the back)
11. 900
12. 1,800
13. 750
14. 3,000
15. 6,400

III. Find the total number of samples and samples for each group.
Number of Population Number of Samples
Group A – 193 ?
Group B – 270 ?
Group C – 187 ?
Group D – 220 ?
N=870 ?
