Describe a probability sampling technique that you might use to obtain a sample for this study.

The Study:

You want to study the causes of bullying among middle school students in the United States. The study hypothesis is: males are more likely to engage in bullying than females.

Answer the following two questions based on this study:

Describe a probability sampling technique that you might use to obtain a sample for this study.

Simple Random, Systematic Random, Stratified Random, or Multistage Cluster

Explain how you would use the selected technique to draw your sample.

Explain why you selected this technique over the other available probability sampling techniques. You must list each of the other 3 techniques and explain in detail why you did not select them.

Describe a non-probability sampling technique that you might use to obtain a sample for this study.

Availability, Quota, Purposive, or Snowball

Explain how you would use the selected technique to draw your sample.

Explain why you selected this technique over the other available non-probability sampling techniques. You must list each of the other 3 techniques and explain in detail why you did not select them.
