  1. Random sampling

      1. Won't be representative if sample too small
      2. Opportunity sampling
        1. More convenient than random sampling
          1. Pt's come to you
          2. It is not likely to be representative
            1. Same types of people may gather in one place
          3. Volunteer sampling

              1. Pt's come to you
              2. Not likely to be representative
