Sampling

For this Application, you will build upon the sampling strategy you described in your Discussion Assignment. You will compute the sample size and run a power analysis on your sampling strategy for your research proposal.

To prepare for this Application:

• Review Chapter 8 in the Frankfort-Nachmias and Nachmias book.
• Review the sampling strategy for your research proposal as you described in this week's Discussion Assignment.
  
  
• Review the Sheperis media in this week's Learning Resources to learn how to run a power analysis using G*Power.
  
  

The assignment:

• Compose a 3- to 4-page paper in which you do the following:
  
  
  • Describe the sampling strategy for your research proposal.
    
    
  • For each strategy that you did not choose, state why that one is not appropriate for your research questions, hypotheses, and variables.
    
    
  • Run a G*Power analysis to determine the appropriate sample size.
    
    
  • Support your work with references to the literature.
