Sažetak	Online convenience sampling is a non-probability technique in which participants are recruited via internet channels — survey platforms, social media, email lists, or research panels — simply because they are accessible and willing to respond. It is the online analogue of traditional convenience sampling, offering fast, low-cost data collection at the expense of known representativeness. It is among the most widely used approaches in social, behavioral, and health sciences research conducted through web-based surveys.	Purposive sampling is a non-probability strategy in which the researcher deliberately selects participants, documents, or cases that are information-rich with respect to the research question. Rather than drawing units at random, the researcher applies explicit criteria aligned with the study's purpose, maximising the depth and relevance of the data collected. It is the default sampling logic in most qualitative research designs and is also used in mixed-methods and applied evaluative work.	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.
