SAMPLING - is a process or procedure of taking samples from a population
Probability Sampling – is a random sampling technique that each element in a population has an equal chance of being selected.
Non-probability Sampling – is a non-random sampling technique that each element in a population has no equal chance of being selected.

How big should the sample size be?
A sample should be big enough to answer the research question, but not so big that the process of sampling becomes expensive.
Too big a sample does not increase the precision of testing your question beyond costs and trouble incurred in getting that size sample.

An important consideration in conducting research is the size of your sample. It must be large enough so that erratic or inconsistent behavior of very small samples will not produce misleading results.
A large sample is not necessarily a good sample. Although it is important to have a sample that is sufficiently large, it is more important to have a sample in which the respondents have been chosen in an appropriate way, such as random selection.
Use a sample size large enough so that we can see the true nature of any effects or phenomena, and obtain the sample using an appropriate method, such as one based on randomness.

Stratified Sampling – entails subdividing the population according to a certain characteristic, then selecting the samples from every subgroup or stratum.
This is resorted to when it is important to get response per subgroup or stratum.
It is useful if there is a need to differentiate the characteristics of a heterogeneous population and the elements or respondents are geographically concentrated in a given area

Letting the proportion of getting a good sample and proportion of getting a poor sample equal 0.50, then the formula becomes
n = sample sizeN = population sizep = 0.50 (proportion of getting a good sample) 1 – p = 0.50 (proportion of getting a poor sample)d = 0.025 or 0.05 or 0.10 (your choice of sampling error) Z = 1.96 (95% reliability in obtaining the sample size) 2.33 (99% reliability in obtaining the sample size)
