Muhtasari	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.	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.
