Abstract: 

The article focuses on issues related to quantitative and qualitative
selection procedures. In every kind of scientific experience
investigation, the question arises at a certain point of the research
process about the investigation units, and above all, according to which
criteria these investigation units are to be selected. The article
focuses on some differences and points of contact between quantitative
and qualitative sampling work out. The author limits himself to the
central aspect of generalization from random check data. The quality of
the alternative procedures for the random sample is also evaluated. This
is common to these procedures that aim at the generalization on the
basis of the representation conclusion. While with the
coincidence-steered sample of the sampling errors is calculable and are
definable on the basis of the sampling error, intervals for the
exactness of a random checks-based estimate of the parameters in the
basic totality are assignable, this does not apply to
not-coincidence-steer selection procedures.
