ibstudent_G Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 Hey guys! So I have to submit my psych IA (Loftus and Palmer) really soon and I'm having trouble justifying my reason for choosing an opportunity sample. This is what I wrote: "Participants were gathered using an opportunity sample. There were 21 participants in total, with 11 participants from a homeroom class in Group 1, and the 10 remaining participants from a psychology class in Group 2. We organized them based on their classes so it was easy to find a time where all participants in a group were free. Afterwards, the groups were randomly allocated one of the two conditions" My teacher said to extend the justification further but I'm not sure how. I would really appreciate the help!
