The most common sampling method is the convenience sample; therefore, many of the studies that you find for evidence use this sampling method. What are the implications of using a convenience sample on the way that you interpret and use the findings?

    Convenience sampling might not result in representative samples of the population, and this can induce errors in the results of the findings.

    For example, if I want to find out about employment quality, I could go to an upscale restaurant and ask the people there about how they feel about their employment, and how much it pays. This type of convenience sample would probably result in favorable answers, with people finding job either satisfactory or high paying, or both, because those are the type of jobs that people who can afford expensive dinners tend to have. However, these findings would not be representative and would also be extremely biased.
