Time and Event Sampling: These types of sampling are used mostly in studies
which use observation. In time sampling, the sampling unit is time instead of
people. Researchers may decide to sample the first 15 minutes of each hour of
the day instead of observing the whole day. When events are the focus of a
study, the events become the units from which the sample is drawn.
