population and sampling techniques.
In this lesson, it specifically aims to describe the population of the study and
determine sampling procedure.

Sampling Procedure
Sampling Methods:
a. Random Sampling is a technique that uses randomization to make sure
that every element of the population gets an equal chance to be part of the selected
sample.
b. Stratified Sampling is a technique that divides the elements of the
population into small subgroups (strata) based on the similarity in such a way that
the elements within the group are homogeneous and heterogeneous among the other
subgroups formed.
c. Convenience Sampling where the samples are selected based on availability.
d. Purposive Sampling is based on the intention or the purpose of the study.
e. Quota Sampling, this type of sampling depends on some pre-set standard.
It selects the representative sample from the population.
f. Referral/Snowball Sampling is used in situations where the population is
completely unknown and rare.
What’s More
Directions: Based on the topic that you’ve chosen, identify the population of your
study and decide on the sample procedure/sand sample of your study. Write your
answers in a separate sheet.
