Understanding Data and Ways

to Systematically Collect data

Probability Sampling Technique
 Sampling Technique
- selection of components of the sample
that will give a representative view of the
whole
- can be biased or unbiased
 Probability Sampling
sampling technique in which samples are
obtained using some objective chance
mechanism, thus involving randomization

SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING SYSTEMATIC SAMPLING

Drawing randomly from a list of the Taking every kth element in the
population (e.g.: names from a hat, using population as a sample, where
a matrix of random numbers).
Steps to follow:

1. Divide population to the desired sample size (population ÷ sample size= kth)
2. Choose one number from 1 to value you obtain from letter a
3. Start counting from the number you choose in letter b, you take every kth of the number
counts.

Example:
Population= 500
Sample size= 100 500 ÷ 100 = 5 (I will count every 5th in the list)
For instance, I choose 100 from 1-500. Therefore, my sample will be the student number 5, 10, 15, 20, 30…
until it reaches the maximum number which is 500.

Probability Sampling

The target population is 1200 junior high

school with the desired sample size of
300. The researcher will get the number
of students per level. Divide each
number of students per level by the total
population of 1200 and then multiply by
the desired sample size of 300.
STRATIFIED RANDOM JHS Population =1200 Sample Size = 300
SAMPLING 1st year 350 88
a process in which certain
2nd year 300 75
subgroups, or strata, are selected for the
sample in the same proportion as they exist in 3rd year 280 70
the population 4th year 270 67
 Sampling Techniques
Probability Sampling

The largest scale surveys used cluster

sampling method. It is used when the
target respondents in a research study is
spread across a GEOGRAPHICAL
LOCATION. In this method, the
population is group into what we called
CLUSTER. Simple random sampling is
used in selecting the cluster
CLUSTER SAMPLING
The selection of groups, or
clusters, of subjects rather than
individuals
 MULTI STAGE CLUSTER
SAMPLING
The selection of sample within the
cluster
