SAMPLING
• Refers to the process of systematically selecting
individuals, units, or groups to be analyzed during the
conduct of study.

GENERALIZABILITY- refers to the extent your findings

can be applied in other context.
Heuristics
refers to the rule of thumb for the
sample size used in the study.

Literature Review

studies similar to yours and
check the sample size that
they used

Power Analysis
•Important aspect of experimental
design. It allows us to determine the
sample size required to detect an effect
of a given size with a degree of
confidence.
 SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
Probability sampling is based
on the fact that every number
of population has a known
and equal chance of being
selected.
SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING
•In a simple random sample (SRS) of a
given size, such subsets of the frame
given an equal probability. each element
has an equal probability selection.
Furthermore , any given pair of
elements has the same chance of
selection as any other pair.
 SYSTEMATIC SAMPLING
•Systematic sampling relies on arranging
the target of population according to
some ordering scheme, a random start
and then selecting elements at regular
intervals through that order list as long
as the starting point is randomized,
systematic sampling is a type of
probability sampling.
STRATIFIED SAMPLING
Where the population embrace many
distinct categories the frame can be
organized by these categories into
separate “strata” each stratum is then
sampled as independent sub-population,
out of which individual elements can
randomly selected.
 CLUSTER SAMPLING
Sometimes it is more cost effective
to select respondents in groups
(“clusters”) sampling is often
clustered by geography or by time
periods.
