Ethnic Sample
Sampling the hard-to-sample.
When targeting ethnic minorities, respondents from specific country of origins or likely religions, general RDD sample does not perform well due to a low incidence rate. Using our targeted ethnic mobile sample it is possible to survey respondents with high accuracy.
We have wrapped up complex niche projects with:
Compliance
Ethnical sampling for sensitive PII data
The ethnic sample is overlayed with public data that can be found from various sources publicly. If data is not available publicly, we cannot retrieve it.
Most social media and messenger networks have the option to set-up privacy options. When these are activated, we do not have a way to retrieve the data. Sample Solutions keeps track on the timestamp when the data has been processed and which sources have been used.

Our Process
Probability Sampling meets Big Data
Sample Solutions developed the enriched-RDD sampling approach in-house. We are using multiple steps to create a highly targeted sample that nevertheless contains probabilistic criteria such as the selection probability and frame size for social research. Here are the steps for the sample generation:
01.
A raw mobile RDD sample is generated. The sample is screened for activity to show working/non-working numbers
02.
We match the working numbers with social media data, public search queries and messenger services. This is done using large text, an onomastic approach or facial coding.
03.
04.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have any questions on our Ethnical sampling? We have got answers
We would source landline sample from white pages data where available and then apply an onomastic approach to the names. In most cases this yields older respondents and those that have been in the country for longer.
We can only target literate people as they use a messenger or social network. Overall education level is higher, more males and overall younger people. Since we screen an RDD sample there are indidivudals that cannot be matched, thus a coverage error is introduced.
No, the data is processed live meaning the generated mobile RDD numbers are compared live with various social media and messenger services.
Variables like region gender and age estimate can be added.
Our data is profiled / estimated. We have high evidence that a specific trait like religion, country of origin or ethnicity exists but we do not have hard facts or collected data.
Depending on the volumes and specifications, the default turnaround time for this sample is 2 to 3 working days.
