Below are various statements labelled A thru F concerning different sampling sd1emes, followed by a list of sampling schemes with a blank to be lled in with the letter A thm F of the statement which best represents each particular sampling scheme. Each letter is to be used for one and only one sampling scheme. Note: Some of the following statements may be vague as to not make it too obvious as to what the correct answer is. For example, the word 'convenient' would not be used in a statement whidi applies to a 'convenience' sample. A. bl 8] F} This sampling scheme is an excellent sampling scheme because the sample is randomly selected from a population which cannot be divided into groups based on the characteristics of the population. This sampling scheme is most likely a poor sampling scheme because those participating in some study decided to participate because of their strong opinions of the study's subject and not because they were randomly selected for the study. This sampling scheme is an excellent sampling scheme if the population can be divided into groups in which the elements within each group are quite homogeneous [i.e., quite similar], the elements across different groups are somewhat heterogeneous [i.e., quite different], and a random sample is selected within each of the groups. This sampling scheme may be a good sampling scheme if those sampled are chosen from a more or less random list, with the first element chosen for the sample is randomly selected and every 20*\" element thereafter is chosen for the sample. This sampling scheme is a good sampling scheme if the population can be divided into groups in which elements within each group are somewhat representative of the entire population, a sample of groups are randomly selected, and, all elements in the selected groups participate in the study. This sampling scheme is most likely a poor sampling scheme because the sample is most likely not representative of the population because those chosen for the sample were chosen because of the geographical area in which they were located. simple random sample stratied random sample cluster sample systematic sample voluntary sample convenience sample
