defined by research objectives

CensusA census is an accounting of the complete
population. The U.S. census is taken every 10 years by
the U.S. Census Bureau (www.census.gov).

Basic Concepts in SamplingSample: a subset of the population that
should represent the entire groupSample unit: the basic level of investigation
![Page 10: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Basic Concepts in SamplingA sample frame: a master list of the entire
populationSampling frame error: the degree to which
the sample frame fails to account for all of the population

Basic Concepts in SamplingSampling error: any error in a survey that
occurs because a sample is used
![Page 13: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Reasons for Taking a SamplePractical considerations such as cost and
population size Inability of researcher to analyze huge
amounts of data generated by census
![Page 14: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Basic Sampling MethodsProbability samples: ones in which
members of the population have a known chance (probability) of being selected into the sample
Nonprobability samples: instances in which the chances (probability) of selecting members from the population into the sample are unknown
![Page 15: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Probability Sampling MethodsSimple random samplingSystematic samplingCluster samplingStratified sampling

Probability Sampling:Simple random sampling: the probability
of being selected into the sample is “known” and equal for all members of the population.
![Page 17: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 9-17
Simple Random Sampling The random device method involves
using an apparatus of some sort to ensure that every member of the population has the same chance of being selected into the sample.
![Page 18: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 9-18
Simple Random SamplingThe random numbers method involves
small populations that are easily accommodated by the physical aspects of the device.
![Page 19: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Probability SamplingSystematic sampling: way to select a
random sample from a directory or list that is much more efficient than simple random sampling
![Page 20: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Probability SamplingCluster sampling: method in which the
population is divided into subgroups, called “clusters,” each of which could represent the entire population
![Page 21: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Probability SamplingArea sampling is a form of cluster
sampling; the geographic area is divided into clusters.
![Page 22: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Area (Cluster) SamplingOne-step area sample: the researcher may
believe the various geographic areas (clusters) to be sufficiently identical to allow concentrating his or her attention on just one area and then generalizing the results to the full population.
Two-step area sample: the researcher selects a random sample of areas, and then he or she decides on a probability method to sample individuals within the chosen areas.
![Page 23: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Cluster (Area) SamplingDisadvantage: the cluster specification
error occurs when the clusters are not homogeneous.
![Page 24: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 9-24
Probability SamplingStratified sampling: separates the
population into different subgroups and then samples all of these subgroups
![Page 25: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Nonprobability SamplingWith nonprobability sampling methods
selection is not based on fairness, equity, or equal chance.Convenience samplingPurposive samplingReferral samplingQuota sampling

Nonprobability SamplingConvenience samples: samples drawn at
the convenience of the interviewerPurposive samples: requires a judgment or
an “educated guess” as to who should represent the population
![Page 28: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 9-28
Nonprobability SamplingReferral samples: require respondents to
provide the names of prospective respondentsQuota samples: specified percentages of the
total sample for various types of individuals to be interviewed
![Page 29: Selecting the Sample Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. 1.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec75503460f94bd2f16/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Online Sampling TechniquesOnline panels: large numbers of
individuals who have agreed to participate in online surveys
River samples: created via the use of banners, pop-ups, or other online devices that invite website visitors to take part in the survey
E-mail list samples: purchased or otherwise procured from someone or some company that has compiled email addresses of opt-in members of the population of interest
