LESSON 2 Flashcards
What is a Population
A population encompasses the entire group of entities you aim to study or draw conclusions about. This group shares a specific characteristic or parameter of interest. The size of the population varies depending on the scope and objectives of the stud
what is Sample.
is a subset of the population selected to represent the entire group. It allows
researchers to gather data efficiently without needing to study every individual
Every individual has an equal chance of being selected.
Simple Random Sampling
Dividing the population into subgroups and randomly sampling from
each group.
Stratified random sampling
Randomly selecting entire groups rather than individuals
Cluster sampling
What is the main focus of the quantitative research Population sampling?
The primary objective is to generalize findings from the sample to the population by analyzing numerical data and identifying patterns or trends
Selecting participants based on specific characteristics or
experiences.
Purposive Sampling
Participants recruit others from their network
Snowball Sampling
Choosing participants based on availability and accessibility
Convenience Sampling
What is the goal of qualitative research in population sampling?
The aim is to achieve an in-depth understanding of a phenomenon through detailed descriptions and interpretations
Enumerate what are the Non-probability sampling?
Snowball Sampling.
Convenience Sampling
Quota sampling
Purposive Sampling
Enumerate what are the Probability Sampling?
Random Sampling
Stratified Random Sampling
Cluster Sampling
What is the advantage of calculating the population and sample?
Represents the population effectively.
Reduces time and resource consumption.
Simplifies data processing.
sampling relies on random selection, ensuring every individual has an equal
chance of being included.
Probability sampling
involves deliberate selection by the researcher
Non-probability sampling
