Dear All, Can anybody recommend a professor to ask for consultation? On Sun, Sep 14, 2014 at 12:22 PM, Noha Nagi <noha.a.nagi@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear Professors and colleagues,
I was wondering if there are different sampling methods for internet data than the already known sampling methods.
For my research, I was thinking of taking a *systematic random sample* from facebook posts on a each of four facebook pages. I have no information about the heterogeneity between the different pages according to any variable (gender, political affiliation...) so I thought it is not stratified nor cluster, and it will be more likely a systematic sample.
Is systematic sampling* logically right*?
Did any one come across *other sampling techniques for facebook pages*? or internet data in general?
Can anyone suggest *a book to read about this*?
I would love to hear any advice from you.
Yours, *Noha A.Nagi*
