QuantitativeNon-random sampling strategies

researcher takes a sample of units wherever
he can find them
Quota sampling: the researcher takes a
Methodology and certain amount of units per category or
value of the selection variable
Statistics
- Volunteer sampling: the researcher asks
volunteers, usually with some specific
characteristics
- Handpicked/purposive/expert sampling: the
researcher selects who can provide the best
1.1 information to achieve the study objectives
- Chain/snowball sampling: the researcher
Research Designs:
follows up contacts mentioned by other

factors.
Measurement levels of variables
- Cross-sectional: no manipulation of
independent variable, standardized
- Nominal: mare labels for values, no order
questionnaire used. Also large sample (e.g.
(e.g. sex)
cross section of population).
- Ordinal: ordered values with unequal steps
- Case study: In-depth study of problem. Not

Random sampling strategies:

e.g.
Standard normal distribution
H0: µ = µ0 (µ0 is a specific value of interest)
Total area (C = 1-Ɑ) = 1
Ha: µ µ0
Smaller portion is: P(observation ≥ z)
two sided P-value (two-tailed)
Larger portion is: P(observation ≤ z)
Reject H0 when P-value <Ɑ
Table A.1 gives areas of portion = probabilities
Also possible with rejection region (one- and
C.I. formula:
two-sided):
Use df and Ɑ. Use table A.2. to find the
rejection region. Take + and – version. Check if
estimate z t observed is within this region.

In practice standard deviation (σ) is unknown. Independent two sample t-test (σ1 = σ2)
Use sample data to estimate σ (s). Compare means between two groups, measures
across groups are independent.

Left sided P-value (one-tailed)
Reject H0 when P-value <0,05 df = n – 1
Two-sided Required sample size one sample t-test
e.g.
Use formula:
