Non-probability sampling is used to
address practical concerns in a
research study. The most common
methods under this technique are
convenience, quota, purposive, and
snowball sampling.

• The goal of sampling in quantitative research is
to obtain a sample of individuals who are
representative of the target population.
• The techniques used in sampling for
quantitative research are probability and non-
probability sampling.
