A researcher based in
Miami wants to learn about the experiences of homeless people in the United
States by conducting interviews with them. He plans to conduct in-person
interviews with the homeless people he samples. He is having trouble deciding
how to draw a representative sample of homeless people because homeless people
are difficult to find, often move from place to place, and are often cycled in
and out of homelessness. The researcher has one year and a $5,000 grant with
which to conduct his interviews.
Your task is to help
this researcher.
1. What is the
population he wants to generalize to?
2. What are possible
sampling frames (sources) from which he can draw his sample?
3. What do you think
would be a good/realistic sample size?
4. What sampling methods
would you suggest he uses? Why?
