  1. PDF Sampling Strategies in Qualitative Research

    Sampling can be divided in a number of different ways. At a basic level, with the exception of total population sampling you will often see the divide between random sampling of a representative population and non-random sampling. Clearly, for many more quantitative-minded researchers, non-random sampling is the second-choice approach as it creates

    A sampling plan is a formal plan specifying a sampling method, a sample size, and procedure for recruiting participants (Box 1) . A qualitative sampling plan describes how many observations, interviews, focus-group discussions or cases are needed to ensure that the findings will contribute rich data.

  4. Sampling Techniques for Qualitative Research

    This chapter explains how to design suitable sampling strategies for qualitative research. The focus of this chapter is purposive (or theoretical) sampling to produce credible and trustworthy explanations of a phenomenon (a specific aspect of society). A specific research question (RQ) guides the methodology (the study design or approach).It defines the participants, location, and actions to ...

  5. Big enough? Sampling in qualitative inquiry

    As Patton (2002) notes, "purposeful sampling is one of the core distinguishing elements of qualitative inquiry." (p. 272). Two challenges exist for novice qualitative researchers. First, they may have to dislodge the idea that randomness and representativeness are universally important to all sampling strategies.

  6. Chapter 5. Sampling

    Qualitative researchers ask very different questions, though. Qualitative research questions are not about "how many" of a certain group do X (in this case, what percentage of the unvaccinated hesitate for concern about safety rather than reject vaccination on political grounds). Qualitative research employs nonprobability sampling. By ...

    Sampling techniques in qualitative research include purposive, convenience, snowball, and theoretical sampling. Choosing the right sampling technique significantly impacts the accuracy and reliability of the research results. It's crucial to consider the potential impact on the bias, sample diversity, and generalizability when choosing a ...

  11. Sampling in Qualitative Research

    Abstract. In gerontology the most recognized and elaborate discourse about sampling is generally thought to be in quantitative research associated with survey research and medical research. But sampling has long been a central concern in the social and humanistic inquiry, albeit in a different guise suited to the different goals.

  12. Qualitative Sampling Methods

    Abstract. Qualitative sampling methods differ from quantitative sampling methods. It is important that one understands those differences, as well as, appropriate qualitative sampling techniques. Appropriate sampling choices enhance the rigor of qualitative research studies. These types of sampling strategies are presented, along with the pros ...

  13. Simple Random Sampling

    Revised on December 18, 2023. A simple random sample is a randomly selected subset of a population. In this sampling method, each member of the population has an exactly equal chance of being selected. This method is the most straightforward of all the probability sampling methods, since it only involves a single random selection and requires ...

  14. Sampling in Qualitative Research: Rationale, Issues, and Methods

    There is a need for more explicit discussion of qualitative sampling issues. This article will outline the guiding principles and rationales, features, and practices of sampling in qualitative research. It then describes common questions about sampling in qualitative research.

    Principles of Purposeful Sampling. Purposeful sampling is a technique widely used in qualitative research for the identification and selection of information-rich cases for the most effective use of limited resources (Patton, 2002).This involves identifying and selecting individuals or groups of individuals that are especially knowledgeable about or experienced with a phenomenon of interest ...

    In this scenario you can apply simple random sampling method involves the following manner: Assign a sequential number for each employee from 1 to N (in your case from 1 to 600). Determine the sample size. In your case the sample size of 150 respondents might be sufficient to achieve research objectives.

    When to use simple random sampling. Simple random sampling is used to make statistical inferences about a population. It helps ensure high internal validity: randomisation is the best method to reduce the impact of potential confounding variables.. In addition, with a large enough sample size, a simple random sample has high external validity: it represents the characteristics of the larger ...
