Q

Provides the least number of possible samples

A

Systematic sampling

17
Q

frame can be organized by distinct categories into separate “strata”

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

18
Q

Applicable for large population

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

19
Q

Applicable for Not homogeneous

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

20
Q

Focuses on important subpopulations

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

21
Q

Allows use of different sampling techniques for different subpopulations

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

22
Q

Improves the accuracy/efficiency of estimation

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

23
Q

Complex, requires strata to be clearly and carefully defined

A

Stratified / stratified random sampling

24
Q

Two types of Stratified Sampling

A

Proportional and Non- proportional

25
Q

Proportionate representation is given to subgroups or strata each stratum is represented according to its size

A

Proportional sampling

26
Q

Equal representation is given to all the substrata regardless of their existence in the population

A

Non-proportionate sampling

27
Q

naturally occurring units or grouping within populations

A

Cluster sampling ( multistage cluster.S)

28
Q

Relatively easy and economical

A

Cluster sampling ( multistage cluster.S)

29
Q

Useful when list of population members not available or widely dispersed

A

Cluster sampling ( multistage cluster.S)

30
Q

Other elements in the same cluster may share similar characteristics

A

Cluster sampling ( multistage cluster.S)

31
Q

Standard errors of the estimates are high

A

Cluster sampling ( multistage cluster.S)

32
Q

chosen based on their relative ease of access

who volunteer

A

Convenience sampling

33
Q

data can be collected quickly and for a low cost

A

Convenience sampling

34
Q

seeks to
include ALL accessible subjects as part of the sample

Every subject meeting the criteria of inclusion is selected until the required sample size is achieved

A

Consecutive Sampling

35
Q

chooses the sample based on who they think would be appropriate for the study

A

Purposive sampling

36
Q

Hand-pick subjects on the basis of specific characteristics

A

Purposive sampling

37
Q

Sample with a specific purpose in mind

A

Purposive sampling

38
Q

ensures equal or proportionate representation of subjects depending on which trait is considered as basis

A

Quota sampling

39
Q

design where existing study subjects recruit further subjects from their acquaintances, especially when no lists are available

A

Snow ball sampling
