Sampling methodologies Sampling It may be defined as a process of selecting units that may be people‚ organizations etc‚ from a larger whole i.e. from a population of interest‚ so that by studying the sample we may come up with general characteristics of the entire population under consideration. Types of sampling methods: Probability sampling Probability sampling is a type of sampling that includes random selection. And in order to achieve random selection‚ it must be

Explain a sampling method that could be used in this case study: First of all‚ there are a few options for sampling methods in this case study of how the relief workers at disaster sites experience and cope with issues that surface. Considering that at the disaster sites “the medical teams are always over-worked‚ equipment is always misplaced and it is hard to deliverer food and medicine as the infrastructure is often broken down because of earthquakes” (line 7).

Concept and basics of probability sampling methods One of the most important issues in researches is selecting an appropriate sample. Among sampling methods‚ probability sample are of much importance since most statistical tests fit on to this type of sampling method. Representativeness and generalize-ability will be achieved well with probable samples from a population‚ although the matter of low feasibility of a probable sampling method or high cost‚ don’t allow us to use it and shift us to the

Random sampling is the purest form of probability sampling. Each member of the population has an equal and known chance of being selected. When there are very large populations‚ it is often difficult or impossible to identify every member of the population‚ so the pool of available subjects becomes biased. Systematic sampling is often used instead of random sampling. It is also called an Nth name selection technique. After the required sample size has been calculated‚ every Nth record is selected

populations Because it is impossible to count all the members of a large community‚ some form of sampling has to be used. The size of the sample depends on the area to be investigated‚ but can be shown on a graph as shown (right): Beyond this point‚ more samples (= more work) does not increase the reliability of the results. Ideal sample size AQA are very keen that you should know the importance of random sampling. This is essential to avoid bias. In fieldwork‚ this is done by: 1. Lay out two tapes at
