Résumé	Pilot deviant case sampling is a purposive sampling strategy applied during a pilot phase in which participants are deliberately selected because they represent extreme, unusual, or atypical instances of the phenomenon under study. Rather than seeking representative participants for the pilot run, the researcher intentionally recruits outlier cases to probe the boundaries of research instruments, interview guides, or data collection protocols before the main study begins.	Deviant case sampling is a purposive qualitative sampling strategy in which the researcher intentionally selects cases that are unusual, exceptional, or markedly different from the norm — outliers, extreme successes, or conspicuous failures. The goal is not statistical representation but deep learning from cases that illuminate the boundaries of a phenomenon, challenge prevailing assumptions, or reveal processes that typical cases obscure.
