As Dörnyei (2007) states, common questions and hesitations among non-expert researchers are related to the number of participants
which are expected to be involved in the research project.

The Sample The Sample is the group of participants whom the researcher actually analyzes
in a research proposal and the the population population is the group of people whom
the study is about, (Dörnyei, 2007Dörnyei, 2007, p.96).
The sample is a subset or a narrower a subset or a narrower groupgroup of the population that is
representative of the whole population representative of the whole population for doing the research project

The concept of representativenessrepresentativeness is crucial to obtain solid and
meaningful results in a research project, which mainly depends on
how accurately the target how accurately the target population ispopulation is or to what extend to what extend
this sample represents the larger this sample represents the larger populationpopulation, Milroy and Gordon (2003).
Additionally, when selecting the “target population” a researcher must consider what random sampling is:Additionally, when selecting the “target population”

APPROACHES TO QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
-Experimental Research: It is the only type of research that directly attempts to influence a particular variable, and when properly applied, it
is the best type for testing hypotheses about cause-and-effect relationships.-Quasi-Experimental studies have to be analyzed with
similar characteristics aforementioned.
-Correlational Research: It aims to investigate the relationship between two variables.
-Descriptive Research: It aims to account for qualitative and quantitative research of classroom research.
