types of quantitative and qualitative research

Sampling

It is anticipated that the initial discussion response should be in the range of 250-300 words

How do the sampling methods and sample sizes vary for the different types of quantitative and qualitative research?

  • Hypothetically, what sampling method would you use to conduct a study of your selected evidence-based practice problem/topic? Why?
  • How would you determine the sample type and size?

Responses need to address all components of the question, demonstrate critical thinking and analysis, and include peer reviewed journal evidence to support the student’s position.

Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations and references in APA format.
