A simple random sample of 1,000 members of the American Medical Association will be obtained. A questionnaire will be sent seeking information about their views concerning the appropriate preparation of Licensed Practical Nurses.
The steps to complete the process of the simple random sample are as follows:
Population: The population of the American Medical Association as of December 31, 2014 is roughly estimated at 232,126 members. (Madara, 2015, p. 3).
Sample size: The size being sampled is 1,000 members of the American Medical Association.
Listing the population: The name of each member (which will be called a unit) of the AMA (gaining permission from the association first) will be acquired (Name=unit). ("Simple Random Sampling," n.d.).
