through twelfth grade, which are in disadvantaged environments, according to the United States Census. Probability sampling will be used so that it can be known in advance how likely it is that certain element of the population will be selected for the sample. Along with that, stratified random…

This sample method was chosen over the other methods as it involved asking random people the questions from the questionnaire. This saved us time as we were able to ask a group of students in different classrooms and this made it easy for us to get 100 responses…

primary caregivers to adolescent insecure attachment, intending for a working model of attachment and metallization during adolescence (Boreli, Snavely, Compare, Decio, 2014). Although the study used robust sampling methods, it used a low-risk Italian sample population (Boreli, Snavely, Compare, Decio, 2014) which limits broader application. Therefore it only allowed for investigation on the link between neglect and attachment security, and could not confirm causation. The Research Ethics Board…

Strategy and Sample Size for a Quantitative Research Plan Introduction When a researcher is constructing a sampling method, the questions about the population where the sample will come from and the size of the sample to be used come into play for the purpose of seeking statistical validity (Frankfort-Nachmias & Nachmias, 2008). Parahoo (2014) explains that, in order for sampling method or strategy to be considered credible, defining the population to be sampled, type of sampling, sample size,…

According to Bachman & Schutt (2014): Research should expose participants to no more than minimal risk of personal harm, researchers should fully disclose the purposes of their research, participation in research should be voluntary, and therefore subjects must give their informed consent to participate in the research, and confidentiality must be maintained for individual research participants unless it is voluntarily and explicitly waived. (p. 60) Although Dr. Coswalt protects the research…

used the stratified random sampling method. The teacher sample was made up of 25% of the total number. The student sample was made up of 9% of the target population. The qualitative authors decided to use the criterion sampling strategy. The teachers that were selected had to meet the criterion of using MCDs or taught students that uses MCDs such as, cell phones, smart phones, or tablet computer for teaching or learning. The quantitative sample used stratified sampling which is a good way to…

selecting a wrong sample design. The size of the sample must be in a certain criteria such as precision level, confidence level, and the variability degree. In the case of sampling the attitudes of Bank of America customers and their decision to withdraw their accounts from the bank or not can be accomplished by sampling several states across the country. Determining the sample size is very important, it may vary from one to another. In work environment knowing about the sample size before…

Sample Frame, Population The sampling frame is undergraduate students enrolled at the University of Oklahoma. The list of components, from which the sample is designated, was formed through careful consideration…

key terms and fundamental principles (ii) identification of sampling technique for the sample (iii) the practicality or otherwise of using the sampling strategy for the study. Sample size estimation for any study is imperative, hence the seen to ensure that it is done appropriately (Patten, 2014). Too few participants result in an underpowered sample, while too many participants result in an overpowered sample (Pyrczak, 2010). To achieve a correct…
