Stratified random sampling is a probability sampling technique that divides the population into homogeneous groups, called strata, and selects a random sample from each group. Quota sampling is a non-probability sampling technique that also divides the population into homogeneous groups, but the researcher selects a predetermined number of participants from each group instead of randomly selecting them. By using quota sampling, the researcher can obtain a sample that is more representative of the population, similar to using stratified random sampling. Therefore, quota sampling produces the same advantages for convenience sampling that stratified random sampling produces for probability sampling.
