Q

Method of selecting a sample wherein each element in the population has a known, nonzero chance of being included in the sample.

A

Random (Probability) Sampling

Q

2 Sampling Techniques

A

Random sampling

Non-random sampling

21
Q

5 Random Sampling

A
  1. Simple random sampling
  2. Systematic random sampling
  3. Stratified random sampling
  4. Cluster sampling
  5. Multistage sampling
22
Q

2 Non-random Sampling

A
  1. Quota Sampling
  2. Snowball Sampling
  3. Convenience Sampling
  4. Judgmental Sampling
23
Q

A random sampling wherein all units of the frame are given an equal chance of being selected.
Ex: random number generators, lottery, draw lots

A

Simple random sampling

24
Q

Ordering of all units in the sampling frame then picking the number from 1 to m. With the number labelled as k. Then every kth number in the list is selected.

A

Systematic random sampling

m=N/n

25
The population is divided into 2 or more homogenous group. Then the samples are randomly selected from each stratum.
Stratified random sampling
26
Population is divided into natural groups. Randomly pick some clusters and completely enumerate all samples from chosen clusters.
Cluster sampling
27
True or False. In stratified random sampling, only simple random sampling can be used to select samples from each stratum.
False. Both simple and systematic random sampling can be used.
28
True or False. In stratified random sampling, only simple random sampling can be used to select samples from each stratum.
False. Both simple and systematic random sampling can be used.
29
natural groups
clusters
30
This sampling technique is carried out in stages using smaller and smaller sampling units at each stage. With simple random samplings utilized first and systematic sampling used last.
Multistage sampling
31
Choosing respondents at the convenience of the researcher.
Convenience Sampling
32
True or False. Convenience sampling restricts generalization.
True
33
Wherein the researchers employ his/her own expert judgment.
Judgmental Sampling
34
True or False. Judgmental sampling has the risk of bias selection.
True
35
Strata exists but nonrandom selection of an individual within the group.
Quota Sampling
36
It is when researchers has a key person and introduce the next one to become a chain.
Snowball Sampling
37
True or False. Snowball sampling is useful in specific circumstances and for locating rare populations.
True
38
symbol for population and sample
population=N | sample=n
39
Infinite population formula for sample size
n0= [Z^2a/2 * pq] divided by d2
40
Finite population formula for sample size
n= n0 divided by {1+ [(n0-1) divided by N]}
41
level of significance symbol
alpha (a) a=0.05, z a/2=1.96 a=0.01, z a/2=2.575
42
This is what you expect the results to be.
Sample proportion (p) q=1-p
43
The difference between the population parameter and the sample statistic.
Margin of Error (d)
44
Proportion formula
Pi= Ni/N
45
Sample needed formula
ni = n x Pi
46
True or False. When answer for sample is in decimal point always round up.
True
