Psych IA loftus and Palmer

[ibstudent_G 0]

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!
