Sampling Issues in Empirical Research

Posted on by

Researchers undertaking empirical research face an acute problem at the outset – that of sampling. Where to go? Whom to approach? Why chose a respondent and ignore others? They also face problem regarding the size of the sample. What should be their sample size? What are the factors that determine the size of the sample? What are various types of sampling? How to make sampling representative? What is sampling error and so on.
