Assignment Introduction:
In research, it is almost impossible to study the whole population. Instead, researchers get a sample of the population to make inferences about the variables in the study. For this assignment, you will prepare an in-service education presentation to new research coordinators for a healthcare organization based on types of sampling.
For this assignment, you will create a PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes.
In your presentation,
Describe the sampling approach, the intent of the sampling approach, the procedure for selection of participants, and the potential biases for each type of sampling listed below:
Simple random sampling
Systematic sampling
Stratified sampling
Cluster sampling
Convenience sampling
Snowball sampling
Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of at least two sampling techniques.
Examine three data analysis tools from the following list:
ANOVA Single Factor
ANOVA Two Factor with Replication
ANOVA Two Factor without Replication
Correlation
Covariance
Descriptive Statistics
Exponential Smoothing
F-Test Two-Sample for Variances
Histogram
Rank and Percentile
Regression
t-Test Paired Two Sample Means
Z-Test, Two Sample for Means
Describe a healthcare example of the type of study used for each tool you selected.
The PowerPoint slides should include key concepts, and the details should be listed in the speaker notes. The recommendation is that you access Garr Reynolds’ Presentation Zen Design TipsLinks to an external site., which provides useful assistance with creating successful PowerPoint presentations.
