Nonprobability sampling involves selecting participants based on non-random criteria, such as an inherent bias in the selection process. Therefore, it is the best choice for this scenario. Probability sampling methods, such as stratified or cluster sampling, rely on random selection to ensure representativeness of the sample, which is not the case here.
