Definición

  • Convenience sampling, as its name suggests, involves selecting sample units that are readily accessible to the researcher. It is also sometimes called accidental sampling and is a form of NONPROBABILITY SAMPLING; that is, each member of a population has an unknown and unequal probability of being selected.
