Types of Sampling In applications: Probability Sampling: Simple Random Sampling‚ Stratified Random Sampling‚ Multi-Stage Sampling * What is each and how is it done? * How do we decide which to use? * How do we analyze the results differently depending on the type of sampling? Non-probability Sampling: Why don’t we use non-probability sampling schemes? Two reasons: * We can’t use the mathematics of probability to analyze the results. * In general‚ we can’t count on a non-probability
