Q

Explain Systematic Sampling

A

Systematic sampling draws a random sample from the target population by selecting units at regular intervals starting from a random point. This method is useful in situations where records of your target population already exist, such as records of an agency’s clients, enrollment lists of university students, or a company’s employment records.

A

THE TERM TRIANGULATION REFERS TO THE PRACTICE OF USING MULTIPLE SOURCES OF DATA OR MULTIPLE APPROACHES TO
ANALYZING DATA TO ENHANCE THE CREDIBILITY OF A RESEARCH STUDY. ORIGINATING IN NAVIGATIONAL AND SURVEYING
CONTEXTS, TRIANGULATION ALIGNS MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES AND LEADS TO A MORE COMPREHENSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF
THE PHENOMENON OF INTEREST. RESEARCHERS DIFFER IN THE EMPHASIS PLACED ON THE PURPOSES OF TRIANGULATION; SOME
INVESTIGATORS VIEW IT AS CRITICAL TO ESTABLISHING CORROBORATING EVIDENCE, AND OTHERS FOCUS ON ITS POTENTIAL.
