Introductory Message
This Self-Learning Module (SLM) is prepared so that you, dear learners, can
continue your studies and learn while at home. Activities, questions, directions,
exercises, and discussions are carefully stated for you to understand each lesson.
Each SLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you step-by-step
as you discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.
Pre-tests are provided to measure your prior knowledge on lessons in each SLM.
This will tell you if you need to proceed on completing this module or if you need to
ask your facilitator or your teacher’s assistance for better understanding of the
lesson. At the end of each module, you need to answer the post-test to self-check
your learning. Answer keys are provided for each activity and test. We trust that
you will be honest in using these.
In addition to the material in the main text, Notes to the Teachers are also provided
to our facilitators and parents for strategies and reminders on how they can best
help you on your home-based learning.
Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any part of
this SLM. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercise and tests. Read
the instructions carefully before performing each task.
If you have any questions in using this SLM or any difficulty in answering the tasks
in this module, do not hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator.
Thank you.
This module provides varied activities that will help you learn and apply the
methods and techniques in collecting data.
Directions: Read and analyze each statement carefully. Write your answer on a
separate sheet.

Why is data
collected?
1. What is the population for this honesty survey? What is the sample?
2. Suppose 600 students in your school complete the survey and 570 students
answered “No” to question 4, what percent of the respondents said they would cheat
on the exam?

Collection of Data
Collection of data is the first step in any statistical work after the formulation of the
problem. It is the process of obtaining information. It is a very demanding job which needs
thorough planning, hard work, patience and perseverance to be able to complete the task
successfully.
Data collection starts with determining the kind of data required followed by the
selection of a sample from a certain population. Data is any quantitative or qualitative
information. It should be collected in a manner that they are accurate and convenient to use.
Sources of Data
Primary data have been collected from first-hand-experience. Those data can be
obtained by doing interview, observation, or experimentation.
PRIMARY DATA
Secondary data are data collected from a source that has already been published in
any form. Those data can be obtained from books, newspapers, magazines, journals,
biographies or thesis of other researchers.

Determining the Size of Sample Population
Take note!
✓ Sample size refers to the number of
participants or observations included
in a study.
Slovin’s Formula ✓ Population size may refer to the
size of an entire group of people,
𝑵
𝒏 = 𝟏+𝑵𝒆𝟐 where n = sample size objects, events, hospital visits, or
measurements.
N = population size ✓ The margin of error expresses the
e = margin of error maximum expected difference
between the true population
parameter and a sample estimate of
that parameter. To be meaningful,
the margin of error should be
qualified by a probability statement
(often expressed in the form of a
confidence level).
Illustrative Examples
What is the sample size if the population is 2000 and the margin of error is set at:
a. 5% b. 3% Remember
✓ In changing percent to decimal,
Solution: move the decimal point to the left
twice.
a. Given: N = 2000 e = 5%
The margin of error is 5% or 0.05. Thus, 5% = 0. 0 5
𝑵
𝒏=
𝟏+𝑵𝒆𝟐
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎
𝒏 = 𝟏+(𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎)(𝟎.𝟎𝟓)𝟐 Substitute the given
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎
𝒏 = 𝟏+(𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎)(𝟎.𝟎𝟎𝟐𝟓) Multiply (0.05) by itself
7
b. Given: N = 2000 e = 3%
The margin of error is 3% or 0.03. Thus,
𝑵
𝒏 = 𝟏+𝑵𝒆𝟐
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎
𝒏 = 𝟏+(𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎)(𝟎.𝟎𝟑)𝟐 Substitute the given
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎
𝒏 = 𝟏+(𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎)(𝟎.𝟎𝟎𝟎𝟗) Multiply (0.03) by itself
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎 Multiply 2000 by 0.0009
𝒏 = 𝟏+𝟏.𝟖
𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎 Add the denominator
𝒏=
𝟐.𝟖
𝒏 = 𝟕𝟏𝟒. 𝟐𝟗 Simplify the fraction
The above examples show that as the margin of error decreases, the sample size
increases and vice versa.

b. Systematic sampling is the process of selecting every nth element in the population
until the desired number of samples are obtained. From a list of population, we can
pick a sample systematically using a set of intervals like every 4th, 10th, 15th, etc.
c. Stratified sampling is done by dividing the population into strata or classes. Each
stratum may be formed based on members' shared attributes or characteristics.
Strata 1 Strata 2
Cluster 1 Cluster 2
Cluster 3 Cluster 4

2. Non-probability Sampling. In this sampling procedure, not every element of a
population is given an equal chance of being included in the sample.
There are different kinds of non-probability sampling namely: convenience
sampling, quota sampling and purposive sampling.
a. Convenience sampling is a method in which people are chosen because they are
convenient sources of data for researchers.
Class 1 Class 2
c. Purposive sampling is done when the criteria of the study satisfy a particular
sample.
