QUALITATIVE SAMPLING TECHNIQUES

A flexible research and sampling design is an important feature of qualitative research, particularly when the research being conducted is exploratory in nature. When little is known about a phenomenon or setting, a priori sampling decisions can be difficult. In such circumstances, creating a research design that is flexible enough to foster

Minimum sample size estimation in PLS-SEM: The inverse ...

One of the most fundamental issues in PLS-SEM is that of minimum sample size estimation. A widely used minimum sample size estimation method in PLS-SEM is the “10-times rule” method (Hair et al., 2011), which builds on the assumption that the sample size should be greater

sample median has a greater variance than that of the sample mean, for the same sample size. Hence, X¯ is a more efficient estimator than sample median. Example 2: Consider the following estimator. First, a random portion of a sample is discarded from an origi-nal sample; then, the mean of the retained values in the sampleistakenasanestimateforµ.

Sample Size Formulas for Different Study Designs

For brevity, we restrict discussion to the sample size estimation of the parallel design. We refer to the book by Chow et al. 2 for other subtypes of RCT designs and refer to 3,4 for non-randomized interventional studies. In a parallel RCT, the outcome of interest could be a continuous, dichotomous, or a time-
