Solution

  1. Stratified Sampling: The interviewer is dividing the population into separate groups (males and females) and then randomly selecting samples from each group.
  2. Cluster Sampling: The psychologist is dividing the population into clusters (classes) and then selecting all individuals from randomly selected clusters.
  3. Random Sampling: The organizer is giving each participant an equal chance of being selected by drawing names randomly.
  4. Systematic Sampling: Smart is selecting every 50th cell phone, which is a systematic approach.
  5. Convenience Sampling: The principal is using the easiest and most readily available respondents to reach the conclusion, which is a characteristic of convenience sampling.
