■ Identify and explain the different roles that sampling plays in the
overall information research process.
Sampling plays an important role when there are short time frames for
gathering the needed information. These time frames are more likely to fit into the
decision time frames of the users of the new information. Sampling plays a
significant role in the process of identifying, developing, and understanding new
marketing/business constructs, as well as in developing the scale measurements
used to actually collect raw primary data about people or objects. Decisions
concerning the use of samples indirectly affect the process of designing
questionnaires. Finally, sampling plays a significant role in decisions concerning the
type of data analysis procedures that
can be employed to statistically investigate the sample data statistics.
