BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Andy was tasked by her manager to conduct a

study on their new spicy chicken product. The
restaurant wanted to know if their new spicy chicken
was hitting the market high. Aside from the recorded
number of chicken sold, they also wanted to know
the insights and comments of their customers. Since
most of the customers who patronized their product
were working individuals, she chose this type of
respondents to participate in the study. She made a printed survey form and
requested the customers to answer every question on it. She and her manager agreed
to ask the first 750 customers for this survey.

Population is set before collecting the data for your study. Setting the
population at the start of your study helps you identify the group which your data will
be collected from.

Population is the entire collection of people, animals, objects, procedure,

measurements, and events that fit in the purpose of your study.

Collecting data from your population takes a lot of effort. Aside of impracticality
due to large number of data to consider, it is also time consuming and costly. That is
why you have to choose your sample.

Sample is a part or portion of the population.

In this way, you will save effort, time and resources in conducting your study.

When you have identified all possible members of the population who will be
part of your study, choosing your sample from it is suggested. It will not just save you
time and effort but also the money that you will spend in running the study.

One of the two sampling techniques that you may use is Probability Sampling.
 In probability sampling, all members of the population have equal chances of
being chosen as part of the sample.

Types of Probability Sampling

1. Random sampling - members of your sample are selected through

lottery.

For example, the names of the members are put in a container and
you will pick names from it.

2. Systematic sampling - members of your population are written

in a list systematically with corresponding numbers. You can
pick numbers that are multiples of 10 (10th, 20th, 30th, and so
on until you reach the end of your list). Then, look at the
corresponding names in your list.

For example, you have 120 members in your population and you need only 40
respondents in your study. Divide 120 by 40 the answer is 3. You will pick the
respondents with corresponding numbers that are multiples of 3. These are the
names whose position appears in your list as 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th and so on.

3. Stratified sampling - members of your population are

grouped. You can choose equal number of respondents in each
group, or in proportion to the number of elements in each
group.

For example, in a survey in Manila, you need 300 respondents.

You will get 50 respondents each from its 6 districts.

4. Cluster sampling - members of your population are

grouped. Selection of all respondents are in groups.
You can choose all the respondents in your selected
groups.

For example, in a survey in Manila, you need

300 respondents. You can have all the respondents from district 2 and district
3 only. (Note that there are six districts in Manila.)

You can also combine sampling techniques in your research like stratified
sampling and random sampling or cluster sampling and systematic sampling. The
choice may be dictated by whatever fits the study, or the demands and scope of the
study. It may also be a personal choice of the researcher.

The second type of sampling techniques is Non-Probability Sampling.

In non-probability sampling, all members of the population do not have equal

chances of being chosen as part of the sample.

Types of Non-probability sampling

1. Convenience sampling - samples are selected because of their

immediate availability.

2. Purposive sampling - samples are

determined by the researcher based on
the purpose of the study, usually
members or elements in this sample have similar or specific
characteristics that somehow relate to what is being
researched.

3. Quota sampling - samples are selected to achieve the needed

number of participants in the study.

4. Snowball sampling - samples are

selected based on the
recommendation of other members in the sample.

After doing the sampling or choosing the respondents

of your study, you now have to decide the methods of how
you will gather data from your respondents. It can be direct method or indirect
method. Direct methods include observation and interview where you get the
information first hand. In the observation method, you gather data by taking notes of
what you see from the situation while in the interview method, you gather data by
talking to your respondents and asking them a set of questions.

Indirect method is a way in which you can obtain the needed data without
your actual presence. This method includes questionnaire and registration. The
questionnaire is a form answered by the respondents and serves as a tool to get
essential information. On the other hand, registration includes printed materials such
as registered certificates (e.g. birth, marriage, death, business), newspapers,
magazines, etc. that may contain the needed data for your research.

After choosing the method of gathering data, either direct or indirect method,
classification of data follows. Knowing how to classify the data gathered facilitates data
organization.

Classifications of Data
1. Qualitative data - categories that show classifications or attributes.
Examples: Gender, Marital Status, Grade Level, Senior High Track/Strand
2. Quantitative data – numbers or values that represent counts or measures.
Examples: Weight, number of siblings, hours spent in studying

Quantitative data can be discrete data or continuous data. Discrete data are
exact whole numerical values that result from counting the items in a set such as
number of passengers, number of members in a family, and number of wooden chairs
in a room.
On the other hand, continuous data are numerical values that result from using
a certain unit of measurement and usually in decimal form such as weight, height,
and time spent.
Furthermore, data can also be classified using four levels of measurements.
These four levels of measurements will help you determine what practical or sensible
processes to employ in analyzing your data. Is it sensible to determine the average
room number assignments of Grade 7 students? Of course not. Let us say that the
given numbers in the set are 201, 202, 203, 204, and 205. These numbers are neither
the result of counting nor measuring. These numbers are used to designate room
assignments to Grade 7 students. Room numbers are numbers that will not be used
for calculations.
Levels of Measurement of Data
1. Nominal - data that are categorical.
Example: Gender, Nationality, Civil status
2. Ordinal - data that are in ordered or ranked categories.
Example: rating (good, better, best), ranking (first, second, third)
3. Interval - data that have no real zero.
 Example: Temperature because having 0 degrees does not mean no
temperature.
4. Ratio - data that have real zero.
Example: Weight because 0 kilograms mean no weight at all.

INDEPENDENT ACTIVITY 7 – IN REAL SET-UP

From the previous activities that you accomplished, you learned to define a problem,
to state the purpose of the study, and to make a statistical instrument that served as
a tool to gather data that would be used to answer a problem. In this module, you
learned about the concept of data gathering. If you would like to change some of the
questions or even add more questions in your tool which you deem necessary in
solving the, you may do so.

In this activity, you have to do the following tasks:

1. Define the problem of your study.

2. State the purpose of your study.

3. Determine the population and sample.

4. Decide the sampling technique to use in choosing 10 respondents in the sample.

5. Gather data using one (1) direct method and one (1) indirect method.

Make a short report on how you accomplished the 5 tasks above and together with it,
submit a copy of your statistical instrument (survey form) to your teacher, either a
printed copy or a digital copy sent via online. Use Google Form for the digital copy. Ask
your 10 respondents to answer your survey form online and then collect their
responses.
REMEMBER

Population is the entire collection of people, animals, objects,

procedure, measurements and events that fit in the purpose of your
study.

Sample is a part of the population.

Probability sampling means that all members of the population

have equal chances of being chosen as part of the sample.

Types of Probability Sampling

1. Random sampling - members of your sample are selected through

lottery or by drawing.

2. Systematic sampling - members of your population are written in a

list systematically with corresponding numbers. You can pick numbers
that are multiples of 10 (10th, 20th, 30th, and so on until you reach
the end of your list). Then, look at the corresponding names in your
list.

3. Stratified sampling - members of your population are grouped. You

can choose equal number of respondents in each group, or in
proportion to the number of elements in each group.

4. Cluster sampling - members of your population are grouped.

Selection of all respondents are in groups. You can choose all the
respondents in your selected groups.

Non-probability sampling means that all members of the

population do not have equal chances of being chosen as part of the
sample.
Types of Non-Probability Sampling

1. Convenience sampling - samples are selected because of their

immediate availability.

2. Purposive sampling - samples are determined by the researcher

based on the purpose of the study, usually members or elements in
this sample have similar or specific characteristics that somehow relate
to what is being researched.

3. Quota sampling - samples are selected to achieve the needed

number of participants in the study.

4. Snowball sampling - samples are selected based on the

recommendation of other members in the sample.

Methods of Data Gathering

1. Direct Method - includes observation and interview where you get the
information first hand.

2. Indirect Method – includes ways in which you can obtain the needed
data without your actual presence.

Two Classifications of Data

1. Qualitative data - categories that show classifications or attributes.
2. Quantitative data – numbers or values that represent counts or
measures. Data can either be discrete or continuous.

Levels of Measurement of Data

1. Nominal - data that are categorical.
2. Ordinal - data that are in ordered or ranked categories.
3. Interval - data that have no real zero.
4. Ratio - data that have real zero.

Knowing You

I want to know you. What your thoughts are. How you feel. Because in
what you think and in how you feel lie the answers to the questions that haunt
my mind. But gathering information from you is difficult. I must find a way.

Using a device or a tool facilitates the gathering of data from an entity.

Interview, questionnaires, and observation checklists are among the statistical
instruments that we use in doing so. Now, may I know what your thoughts are?

Let’s Analyze
