Types of Sampling Methods
Probability Non- probability
• Simple random • Convenience sampling
sampling • Judgment sampling
• Systematic random • Quota sampling
sampling
• Stratified random
sampling
• Cluster sampling
Sampling Techniques
Census
• if the total group is contacted, the results are known as a census
Sampling Techniques
Probability Sample
• a sample in which every member of the population has a known
chance of being selected
Sampling Techniques
Nonprobability Sample
• a sample chosen in an arbitrary way so that each member of the
population does not have a representative chance to be selected.
Sampling Techniques
Convenience sampling attempts to obtain a sample
of convenient elements. Often, respondents are
selected because they happen to be in the right place
at the right time.
use of students, and members of social
organizations
mall intercept interviews without qualifying the
respondents
department stores using charge account lists
“people on the street” interviews
•a sample chosen according to the convenience of the researcher.
•eg. “sun TV on the street interviews”
Sampling Techniques

•test markets
•purchase engineers selected in industrial marketing
research
•expert witnesses used in court
•eg. “CityTV on the street interviews” of people that DO NOT have
political party affiliation - to determine how they voted, and who would
win the election
Sampling Techniques
Quota Sample
In quota sampling, the population is first segmented into mutually
exclusive sub-groups, . Then judgment is used to select the subjects
or units from each segment based on a specified proportion
Probability sampling
Sampling Techniques
Cluster Sample
• a probability sample that is used in groups
• used when it is difficult to ask everybody, so they pick some areas
and ask everybody in that area (cluster)
Sampling Techniques
Simple Random Sample
