Abstract

The chapter takes the readers through five key types of non-probability procedures and is divided into six sections. The first section addresses purposive sampling and its seven variants. The variants discussed are maximum variation, homogeneous, total population, expert, critical case study, deviant case, and typical case sampling. The second section contains information related to quota sampling procedure and its differences with stratified and cluster sampling. The convenience sampling procedure is discussed in Section 3, snowball sampling in Section 4, and self-selective sampling in Section 5. The chapter is concluded by a question and answer section, which contains questions summarizing the entire chapter.
