Sample Surveys: Nonprobability Sampling

open access: yes, 2001
Nonprobability sampling describes any method for collecting survey data which does not utilize a full probability sampling design. Nonprobability samples are usually cheaper and easier to collect than probability samples. However, there are a number of drawbacks.

The effects of survey mode and sampling in Belgian election studies: a comparison of a national probability face-to-face survey and a nonprobability Internet survey

open access: yesActa Politica, 2018
National probability election surveys are more and more abandoned. Decreasing response rates and the escalating costs of face-to-face and telephone interviews have strengthened election scholars’ reliance on nonprobability internet samples to conduct election surveys online.

Are Nonprobability Surveys Fit for Purpose?

Public Opinion Quarterly, 2023
Abstract Social scientists employ survey methods to explore the contours of human behavior. Today there are more opportunities to collect survey data than at any time in recent history. Yet sample quality varies dramatically due in part to the availability of nonprobability samples (NPSs) from commercial survey organizations. While these

Selection Bias in Nonprobability Surveys: A Causal Inference Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Many in the survey research community have expressed concern at the growing popularity of nonprobability surveys. The absence of random selection prompts justified concerns about self-selection producing biased results and means that traditional, design-based estimation is inappropriate. The Total Survey Error (TSE) paradigm’s designations of selection

Comparing the Accuracy of Univariate, Bivariate, and Multivariate Estimates across Probability and Nonprobability Surveys with Population Benchmarks [PDF]

open access: yesSociological Methodology
Previous studies have shown many instances where nonprobability surveys were not as accurate as probability surveys. However, because of their cost advantages, nonprobability surveys are widely used, and there is much debate over the appropriate settings

A Review of Nonprobability Sampling Using Mobile Apps for Fishing Effort and Catch Surveys

Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 2021
AbstractTechnology and computational advancements have caused us to rethink data collection and sampling methods that have been the standard for gathering information to guide policy decisions. The availability of new technology such as mobile apps has made using nonprobability samples more attractive because of the speed and low expense that are ...

Using Auxiliary Information in Probability Survey Data to Improve Pseudo-Weighting in Nonprobability Samples: A Copula Model Approach

Journal of Survey Statistics and Methodology, 2023
Abstract While probability sampling has been considered the gold standard of survey methods, nonprobability sampling is increasingly popular due to its convenience and low cost. However, nonprobability samples can lead to biased estimates due to the unknown nature of the underlying selection mechanism.
