Define the Target Population

The target population is the collection of elements orobjects that possess the information sought by theresearcher and about which inferences are to be made.The target population should be defined in terms of elements, sampling units, extent, and time.

 An element is the object about which or from whichthe information is desired, e.g., the respondent.

 A sampling unit is an element, or a unit containing

the element, that is available for selection at somestage of the sampling process.

Extent refers to the geographical boundaries.

Time is the time period under consideration.

Define the Target Population

Important qualitative factors in determining thesample size are:

the importance of the decision the nature of the research

the number of variables

the nature of the analysis

sample sizes used in similar studies incidence rates

completion rates

resource constraints

Convenience Sampling

Convenience sampling attempts to obtain asample of convenient elements. Often, respondentsare selected because they happen to be in the right place at the right time.

Within each of these

Quota Sampling

Quota sampling may be viewed as two-stage restricted judgmentalsampling.

The first stage consists of developing control categories, orquotas, of population elements.

In the second stage, sample elements are selected based onconvenience or judgment.

imposed. Within eachgroup, one element is

selected based on

 judgment or 

convenience. The

resulting sample

consists of elements

Snowball Sampling

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

 After being interviewed, these respondents areasked to identify others who belong to the target population of interest.

Subsequent respondents are selected based onthe referrals.

Simple Random Sampling

Each element in the population has a known andequal probability of selection.

Each possible sample of a given size (n) has aknown and equal probability of being the sampleactually selected.

This implies that every element is selectedindependently of every other element.

Systematic Sampling

The sample is chosen by selecting a random startingpoint and then picking every ith element insuccession from the sampling frame.

The sampling interval, i, is determined by dividing thepopulation size N by the sample size n and roundingto the nearest integer.

When the ordering of the elements is related to thecharacteristic of interest, systematic samplingincreases the representativeness of the sample.

© 2007 Prentice Hall 11-22

Systematic Sampling

If the ordering of the elements produces a cyclicalpattern, systematic sampling may decrease therepresentativeness of the sample.

For example, there are 100,000 elements in thepopulation and a sample of 1,000 is desired. In thiscase the sampling interval, i, is 100. A randomnumber between 1 and 100 is selected. If, forexample, this number is 23, the sample consists of 

elements 23, 123, 223, 323, 423, 523, and so on.

Stratified Sampling

The elements within a stratum should be ashomogeneous as possible, but the elements indifferent strata should be as heterogeneous as

possible.

The stratification variables should also be closelyrelated to the characteristic of interest.

Finally, the variables should decrease the cost of the stratification process by being easy to measureand apply.

Stratified Sampling

In proportionate stratified sampling, the size of the sample drawn from each stratum is proportionate

to the relative size of that stratum in the totalpopulation.

In disproportionate stratified sampling, the sizeof the sample from each stratum is proportionate to

the relative size of that stratum and to the standarddeviation of the distribution of the characteristic of interest among all the elements in that stratum.

Cluster Sampling

The target population is first divided into mutuallyexclusive and collectively exhaustive subpopulations,or clusters.

Then a random sample of clusters is selected, basedon a probability sampling technique such as SRS.

For each selected cluster, either all the elements areincluded in the sample (one-stage) or a sample of elements is drawn probabilistically (two-stage).

Cluster Sampling

Elements within a cluster should be asheterogeneous as possible, but clusters themselvesshould be as homogeneous as possible. Ideally,

each cluster should be a small-scale representationof the population.

In probability proportionate to size sampling,the clusters are sampled with probabilityproportional to size. In the second stage, theprobability of selecting a sampling unit in a selectedcluster varies inversely with the size of the cluster.

Procedures for DrawingProbability Samples

Repeat the process until each of the remaining

clusters has a population less than the sampling

interval. If b clusters have been selected withcertainty, select the remaining c-b clusters

according to steps 1 through 7. The fraction of units

to be sampled with certainty is the overall sampling

fraction = n/N. Thus, for clusters selected withcertainty, we would select ns=(n/N)(N1+N2+...+Nb)

units. The units selected from clusters selected

under two-stage sampling will therefore be n*=n- ns.

Tennis' Systematic SamplingReturns a Smash

Tennis magazine conducted a mail survey of its subscribers togain a better understanding of its market. Systematic samplingwas employed to select a sample of 1,472 subscribers from thepublication's domestic circulation list. If we assume that thesubscriber list had 1,472,000 names, the sampling intervalwould be 1,000 (1,472,000/1,472). A number from 1 to 1,000

was drawn at random. Beginning with that number, every1,000th subscriber was selected.

 A brand-new dollar bill was included with the questionnaire asan incentive to respondents. An alert postcard was mailed oneweek before the survey. A second, follow-up, questionnaire

was sent to the whole sample ten days after the initialquestionnaire. There were 76 post office returns, so the net effective mailing was 1,396. Six weeks after the first mailing,778 completed questionnaires were returned, yielding aresponse rate of 56%.
