population • May be difficult or impossible to detect this misrepresentation Types of Nonprobability Samples Accidental, haphazard, convenience Modal instance Purposive Expert Quota Snowball Heterogeneity sampling Accidental, Haphazard or Convenience Sampling “Man on the street” College psychology majors Available or accessible clients Volunteer samples Problem: No evidence for representativeness Purposive Sampling
Might sample several pre-defined
groups (e.g., the shopping mall survey that attempts to identify relevant market segments) Deliberately sampling an extreme group Problem: Proportionality Problem: Need theory to correctly sample an extreme group Expert Sampling
Have a panel of experts make
a judgment about the representativeness of your sample. Advantage: At least you can say that expert judgment supports the sampling. Problem: The “experts” may be wrong. Quota Sampling
Select people nonrandomly
according to some quotas Proportional quota sampling Nonproportional quota sampling Proportional Quota Sampling • Objective: Represent major characteristics of population by sampling a proportional amount of each. For example, if you know the population has 40% women and 60% men, you want your sample to meet that quota. • Problem: How do you pick the characteristics? How do you know their proportion in population? Nonproportional Quota Sampling
• Making sure you have enough
units from each target group of interest (even if not proportional). • As with stratified random sampling, you might do this to assure that you have good representation of smaller population groups. Snowball Sampling
One person recommends
another, who recommends another, who recommends another, etc. Good way to identify hard- to-reach populations, for example, homeless persons Heterogeneity Sampling
• Make sure you include all sectors --
at least several of everything -- don't worry about proportions (like in quota sampling). • Use when one or more people are a good proxy for the group, for instance, when brainstorming issues across stakeholder groups.
