Define the Target Population
Target population is the collection of elements or objects that
possess the information sought by the researcher.

Defining the target population involves translating the problem


definition into a precise statement of who should and should not
be included in the sample.

Target population should be defined in terms of Elements,


Sampling units, Extent and Time.

Determine the Sampling Frame
Sampling frame is a representation of the elements of the
target population.

It consists of a list or set of directions for identifying the target


population.

e.g. Telephone directory, Yellow pages, Customer list etc.

Sampling frame error.

Select a Sampling Technique
Bayesian Approach: Elements are selected sequentially and it
incorporates prior information about population parameters, costs and
probabilities associated with making wrong decisions.

Traditional Approach: Most commonly used.

Sampling with replacement: After obtaining data from the element, it


is placed back in the sampling frame, so it has chance of getting
selected again.

Sampling without replacement: After collecting data from element, it


is removed from the sampling frame and hence it cannot be selected
again.

Probability or Nonprobability sampling.

Convenience Sampling
Convenience sampling attempts to obtain a sample of
convenient elements. Often, respondents are selected
because they happen to be in the right place at the right
time.

organizations.

sampling in which the population elements are selected
based on the judgment of the researcher.

Quota Sampling
Quota sampling may be viewed as two-stage restricted
judgmental sampling.
The first stage consists of developing control categories, or
quotas, of population elements.
In the second stage, sample elements are selected based on
convenience or judgment.

Snowball Sampling
In snowball sampling, an initial group of respondents is
selected, usually at random.

After being interviewed, these respondents are asked to


identify others who belong to the target population of
interest.

Subsequent respondents are selected based on the


referrals.

Simple Random Sampling
Each elements in population has a known and equal
probability of selection.

Each possible sample of a given size (n) has a known and


equal probability of being the sample actually selected.

This implies that every element is selected independently of


every other element.

costly.

Systematic Sampling
Sample is chosen by selecting a random starting point then
every ith element is selected.

Sampling interval is selected by N/n.

When the ordering of the elements is related to the


characteristic of interest, systematic sampling increases the
representativeness of the sample.

If the ordering of the elements produces a cyclical pattern,


systematic sampling may decrease the representativeness of
the sample.

Stratified Sampling
Two step process in which population is partitioned in to sub
population or strata.

Strata will be mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive.

Samples or elements are selected from each stratum.

Objective of stratified sampling is to increase precision without


increasing cost.

Powerpoint Templates
Page 29
The variables used in partition the population in to strata is
known as stratification variables.

The criteria for selecting variables are homogeneity,


heterogeneity, relatedness and cost.

Elements within strata should be homogeneous but in strata


should be heterogeneous as possible.

The stratification variables should also be costly.

Powerpoint Templates
Page 30
In proportionate stratified sampling, the size of the
sample drawn from each stratum is proportionate to the
relative size of that stratum in the total population.

In disproportionate stratified sampling, the size of


the sample from each stratum is proportionate to the
relative size of that stratum and to the standard
deviation of the distribution of the characteristic of
interest among all the elements in that stratum.

Both are identical if characteristics of interest has same


standard deviation within each stratum.

Cluster Sampling
The target population is first divided into mutually exclusive
and collectively exhaustive subpopulations, or clusters.

Then a random sample of clusters is selected, based on a


probability sampling technique such as Simple Random
Sampling.

For each selected cluster, either all the elements are


included in the sample or a sample of elements is drawn
probabilistically.

Page 35
Elements within a cluster should be as heterogeneous as
possible, but clusters themselves should be as
homogeneous as possible. Ideally, each cluster should be
a small-scale representation of the population.

In probability proportionate to size sampling, the


clusters are sampled with probability proportional to size
and the probability of selecting a sampling unit in a selected
cluster varies inversely with the size of the cluster.

Sampling Techniques
Sequential Sampling: A probability sampling technique in
which the population elements are sampled sequentially,
data collection and analysis are done at each stage, and a
decision is made as to whether additional population
elements should be sampled.

Double Sampling: A sampling technique in which certain


population elements are sampled twice.
