Detailed explanation-1: -The sample frame is the group of individuals that can be selected from the target population given the sampling process used in the study.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sampling is the process of selecting a representative group from the population under study. The target population is the total group of individuals from which the sample might be drawn. A sample is the group of people who take part in the investigation. The people who take part are referred to as “participants”.
Detailed explanation-3: -The target group/population is the desired population subgroup to be studied, and therefore want research findings to generalise to. A target group is usually too large to study in its entirety, so sampling methods are used to choose a representative sample from the target group.
Detailed explanation-4: -Sampling is the selection of a subset of the population of interest in a research study. In the vast majority of research endeavors, the participation of an entire population of interest is not possible, so a smaller group is relied upon for data collection.
Detailed explanation-5: -The target population of a study is the broad group of people that researchers are examining. In clinical trials, this means the group of people researchers think might benefit from a particular experimental drug.
