Q

the probability of any particular member of the population be ing chosen is unknown. The selection of sampling units in this sampling is quite arbitrary, as researchers rely heavily on personal judgement.

16
Q

what are the types of non probability sampling

A

convenience sampling
snowballing sampling
quota sampling
purposive sampling

17
Q

it is used whe researchers chose any willing and available individuals as participants

A

convenience sampling

18
Q

a technique that constructs sample subgroups reflecting their proportiuonal representation in the population

A

quota sampling

18
Q

the researchers used the first participants that o match the participant profile

A

snowballing sampling

19
Q

it refers to intentionally selecting participants beased on their characteristics, knowledge, experiences, or some other criteria

A

purposive sampling

20
Q

An individual who is responsible for gathering
data in the field.

21
Q

A research supplier that specializes in
gathering data.

A

Field interviewing service

22
Q

A fieldworker who is employed by the
company conduction the research.

A

in house interviewer

23
the practice by the fieldworkers of filling in fake answers or falsifying interviews
interviewer cheating
24
A form of interviewer cheating in which an interviewer makes up the responses instead of conducting an actual interview.
curb stoning
25
It is the process of collecting and measuring information on specific variables. It’s done with the purpose of answering questions or testing hypotheses.
data collection
26
what are the data collection methods for qualitative (FQFO)
face to face interviews qualitative questionnaires focus groups observation
27
researchers collect data directly from subjects thru one to one interaction
face to face interview
28
usually consist of short- open ended questionas
qualitative questionnaires
29
what are the data collection method for quantitative?
interviews quantitative observations experiments
29
allows researchers to collect qualitative data by observing respondents in their natural setting
observation
29
researchers can conduct interviews in one person online, or over the phone
interviews
30
collecting data through this is similar to conducting interviews except its done in a group setting
focus groups
31
can be also collected through systematic observation
quantitative observation
32
a type of quantitative data collection method which relies on manipulation of a single independent variable while maintaining control over a number of other, usually dependent, variables.
experiments
32
two main types of observation
covert and overt observation
33
– This type of observation involves the researcher being concealed during the observation process.
covert observation
34
Respondents that participate in this observation are aware that they’re being observed.
overt observation
35
what are the three types of experiments (LFN)
laboratory experiments field experiments natural experiments
36
how to collect data?
decide what info. you need set time frame choose a data collection collect data
37
what are the importance of collecting data?
gain better understanding of your audience find areas for improvement identify patterns personalized ypour messaging
