SAMPLING STRATEGIES
CENSUS, SAMPLING AND SURVEY
Census and Sampling are methods of
collecting data from the population.
There are also times when a sampling frame is not available. Example:
international tourists are the target population, but a sampling frame that
consists of the names of all international tourists coming to Malaysia is highly
confidential (for security reasons) and therefore not available to the
researcher.
DETERMINE SAMPLING STRATEGY
The purpose of a sampling strategy is to select sampling units (e.g., female
consumers) as a sample (e.g., 500 female consumers) from the population (e.g.,
10 million).
PROBABILITY V.S NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING
PROBABILITY SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
1. SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
o This follows a lucky draw
procedure, where every unit in the
population has an equal chance of
being selected. First, you assign a
running number to each unit in the
sampling frame. Then, you select a
unit randomly accordingly to the
number suggested by a random
table.
2. SYSTEMATIC RANDOM SAMPLING

DETERMINE SAMPLE SIZE (QUALITATIVE)
The sample size requirements usually follow the rule of data
saturation.
