Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Quota samples are a non-probability sampling method where respondents are selected based on certain predetermined characteristics, such as age, gender, or occupation. The goal of a quota sample is to ensure that the final sample reflects the diversity of the target population in terms of these characteristics. Therefore, quota samples are satisfied when the desired number of qualified respondents is realized, regardless of whether the list of potential respondents has been exhausted or not.
