how we're feeling right now.

THANK YOU FOR
SHARING!
LET'S MAKE THIS DAY
AMAZING!
SAMPLING
PROCEDU
RE &
SAMPLE
Population two types
1. target population
(N) -actual population
the totality of all the all Senior High School Students enrolled in
Accountancy and Business Management (ABM) in
objects, elements, the District of Carmona City
persons, and
2. accessible population
characteristics under
-the portion of the population
consideration
in which the researcher has
reasonable access
-all SHS enrolled in ALLSHS
Sampling Sample
pertains to the
systematic process of
(n)
selecting the group to representative subset of
be analyzed in the the population
All the 240 Senior
research study.
High School Students enrolled in
Accountancy, Business and Management
(ABM) Strand in a school, for example,
constitute the population; 60 of those
students constitute the sample.
Approaches in Identifying the Sample Size
HEURISTICS LITERATURE FORMULAS
refers to the general rule or rule of the REVIEW being established for the computation
thumb for sample size. of an acceptable
by reading similar or related
This is the earliest established sample size
literature and studies to
approach for sample sizes for SLOVIN'S
your current research study
different research designs
COCHRAN'S
SLOVIN'S
Formula
1. POPULATION – consists of members of a group that a researcher is
interested in studying that usually have common or similar
(N) characteristics.
2. Margin of error – the allowable error margin in research
- A confidence interval of 95% gives a margin of error of 5%
(e) - A 98% gives a margin of error of 2%
SLOVIN'S
Formula
A researcher wants
to conduct a survey.
If the population of
a big university is
35,000, find the
sample size if the
margin of error is
5%.
SLOVIN'S
Formula
Suppose you plan to
conduct a study among
2,000 Grade 11
students enrolled in
the ABM Track, How
many respondents are
needed using a margin
of error of 2%?

SLOVIN'S
Formula
3. Find the sample size
required for a population
size N=1000 if an error of e
= .05 is tolerated. Suppose
that our population
categorized by sexes
behaves as follows:
Find the total sample size,
male sample size & female
sample size
SLOVIN'S
Formula
Find the sample size required for
a population size N=1000 if an
error of e = .05 is tolerated.
Suppose that our population
categorized by sexes behaves as
follows:
35% = (350/1000) X 100 286 X .35 = 100.1 or 100
65% = (650/1000) X 100 286 X .65 = 185.9 or 186
SLOVIN'S
Formula
N= 1000
e = .05
Find n distribution
per gender and
department
SLOVIN'S
Formula
N= 1000
e = .05
Find n distribution
per gender and
department
Cochran’s
Formula
where:
e is the desired level of precision (margin of error)
p is the (estimated) proportion of the population which has
the attribute in question
q is 1 – p
Z is the z-value found in the Z table
Cochran’s Assumed your study is for Carmona, and
you want to determine how many
Formula households whose breadwinner work onsite
during COVID pandemic.
And you do not have enough information
about the population. In that case, you are
going to assume that a half of the
breadwinners in the city are working onsite.
So, this assumption will give you a

A n d y o u w a n t 9 5 % c o n fi d e n c e , a n d
at least 5 percent – plus or minus
– precision; and that gives you Z values
