Best Answer

Convenience sampling is also know as grab sampling. There is no procedure for the sampling itself because the emphasis at this stage is usually on improving other aspects of the research such as exposing flaws in a survey form or training personnel. In grab sampling you simply take any sample element that you can find although you might favour those that would exercise parts of your system that might seem weak. For instance, if your survey instrument asks for ages and some people were reluctant to provide them, then how would this be resolved once the grab sampling phase had been completed and actual sampling had started?
