Population and Sample

• Discuss the setting, general population, target population, and study sample. The discussion of the sample includes the research terminology specific to the type of sampling for the study.

• When describing the sample size, provide evidence that the sample size is adequate for the research design. If you use the statistical flowchart linked in the Unit 8 formative assessment, you should have an appropriate statistical test.

• Consult the concept paper template for additional guidance.ï»
