specific set of questions
Structured Interview
employs a specific set questions and
produces quantitative data
A sample is a percentage of a
specific population carefully chosen by
the researcher to generally represents
the whole population.
When the entire population is too
large for the researcher to cover, there
is a need for the sampling process.
Probability Sampling
is a technique wherein samples are given equitable
chances or nonzero chances of being selected from
the population. Researcher needs to apply
randomization wherein he or she needs to assure
that every sample has an equal representation for
the selection process to be unbiased. Sampling
error is a range of inaccuracy to which a sample
might vary from he particular population
Nonprobability Sampling
does not give the samples equal
chance of being selected, because
samples are instead selected according
to their accessibility or personal choice
of the researcher.

Tips:
Be specific and direct with the questions
and answers required.
Be flexible with the respondents’ convenient
way of answering the questionnaires(mail,
telephone, face to face or online). Therefore,
the researcher must be ready with any of
these four formats
Ensure that each question is necessary and
not repetitive.
Always put yourself in the shoes of your
respondents. The questionnaire should be
simple but should also meet the objectives.
The comparison and type of
questions(multiple choice, dichotomous,
open ended) should also be geared toward
their convenience.
Make sure that questions are arranged in a
coherent order that will lead to the answers
required. At the onset, qualifying questions
are positioned, followed by general
questions and then specific questions.
The questionnaire should look professional,
be divided into strategic parts and be
properly numbered.
