What is bias sample?

Sampling bias occurs when the sampling frame does not reflect the characteristics of the population which is being tested. Biased samples can result from problems with either the sampling technique or the data-collection method. Essentially, the group does not reflect the population which is supposed to be represented in the given survey or test. For example: If the question being asked in a survey was "do American's prefer Coca-Cola or Pepsi?" and all people asked were under 18 and from California, there would be a sampling bias as the sampling frame would not accurately represent "American's".

What is the procedure of convenience sampling?

Convenience sampling is also know as grab sampling. There is no procedure for the sampling itself because the emphasis at this stage is usually on improving other aspects of the research such as exposing flaws in a survey form or training personnel. In grab sampling you simply take any sample element that you can find although you might favour those that would exercise parts of your system that might seem weak. For instance, if your survey instrument asks for ages and some people were reluctant to provide them, then how would this be resolved once the grab sampling phase had been completed and actual sampling had started?


What is linear snowball sampling?

This is a non-random sampling technique where the initial respondents to a survey recruit others for a survey. Linear snowball sampling is when the first responent recruits one more person for the survey, who in turn recruits one more person for the survey. Number of people surveyed will increase in a linear manner. The related links provide good discussion of this form of surveying. It is a non-representative sample, but it is an effective means of surveying people with common traits who might otherwise be difficult to find. For example, I want a statistical profile of people that are "hackers" so every hacker I find, I would ask if I could interview his "fellow hackers." See related links.
