Document Summary
Chapter 5: qualitative and quantitative sampling page #108-133 (9 questions): Get any cases in any manner that is convenient. Get a present number of cases in each of several predetermined categories that will reflect the diversity of the population, using haphazard methods. Get all possible cases that fit particular criteria, using various methods. Get cases using referrals from one or a few cases and then referrals from those cases, and so forth. Get cases that substantially differ from the dominant pattern (a special type of purposive sample) Get cases until there is no additional information or new characteristics (often used with other sampling methods) Snowball sampling: snowball sampling (also called network, chain referral, or reputational sampling) is a method for identifying and sampling (or selecting) the cases in a network. In sequential sampling, a researcher continues to gather cases until the amount of new information or diversity of cases is filled.
