    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Nursing
    • Survey Methodology
    • Health Services Research

    Background:

    • General population sampling methods are well-established.
    • Pediatric nursing research often targets special or rare populations, requiring specialized recruitment strategies.
    • Effective sampling is crucial for generalizability and validity in research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present techniques for locating rare populations in pediatric nursing research.
    • To discuss the development and analysis of a specific sampling technique for a survey of chronically ill school-age children.
    • To provide methodological guidance for researchers working with hard-to-reach pediatric groups.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on sampling techniques for rare populations.
