Research Methods for Sociology
Validity, Reliability, and Sampling
The Forum includes several steps:
1. Identify a "different" research problem that would be best studied using a non-probability sample.
2. Discuss why this research problem is best studied using a non-probability sample, and what type of non-probability sample you would likely use.
3. Find a peer-reviewed journal article (no more than five years old) related to that research problem.
4. Discuss the sampling strategy/process used in the article. What details are included, and what information regarding the sampling was ignored?
