Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
In stratified random sampling, the population is first divided into two or more strata, from which elements are randomly selected. The aim of stratified sampling is to enhance representativeness; as a type of probability sampling, it is more reliable than nonprobability sampling. This case would be ideal for stratified random sampling, as the population is readily divided into the strata of city, county, and federal prisons. Purposive sampling is based on the belief that researchers' knowledge about the population can be used to hand-pick sample members. Quota sampling occurs when researchers identify population strata and figure out how many people are needed from each stratum. Simple random sampling is the most basic probability sampling.
