TYPE OF STUDY Explorative of formative Descriptive/Diagnostic Rigid design ( design must make enough provision for protection against bias and must maximize reliability. Probability sampling design (Random sampling) Pre- planned design for analysis Structured or well planned instruments Advanced decision
Overall design
Flexible design ( design must provide opportunity for considering different aspects of the problem)
1.Sample design
Non- probability sampling design ( purposive or judgmental sampling) 2.Statistical design No pre- planned design for analysis 3.Observational Unstructured instrument for collection of design data 4.Operational No fixed decision about the operational Design procedure
