Consecutive sampling
In the design of experiments, consecutive sampling, also known as total enumerative sampling,[1] is a sampling technique in which every subject meeting the criteria of inclusion is selected until the required sample size is achieved.[2] Along with convenience sampling and snowball sampling, consecutive sampling is one of the most commonly used kinds of nonprobability sampling.[3] Consecutive sampling is typically better than convenience sampling in controlling sampling bias.[4] Care needs to be taken with consecutive sampling, however, in the case that the quantity of interest has temporal or seasonal trends.[2] Bias can also occur in consecutive sampling when consecutive samples have some common similarity, such as consecutive houses on a street.[5]
