Best Answer

Random sampling prevents any emergent patterns inherent in a non-random selection process. Second, random samples of the population provide the widest representation of the population as a whole (given that the sample is large enough). This is why there is emphasis and the quantity of the study group-- the larger the population being analyzed the more accurate a representation it will be during the course of the study.
