Ringkasan	Sensitivity analysis-based purposive sampling extends conventional purposive sampling by systematically testing whether key findings or case-selection decisions change when the inclusion criteria, selection logic, or boundary conditions are altered. It applies the logic of sensitivity analysis — standard in quantitative research and systematic reviews — to qualitative case selection, giving researchers explicit evidence of how robust their purposive choices are to plausible alternative selection rules.	Snowball sampling is a non-probability recruitment technique in which initial participants (seeds) refer the researcher to others who meet the study criteria, and those referrals in turn refer further participants. The sample grows incrementally — like a rolling snowball — until the required size or theoretical saturation is reached. It is the method of choice when a target population has no accessible sampling frame, such as undocumented migrants, illicit drug users, survivors of stigmatised experiences, or members of closed professional networks.
