Quota sampling fills specified subgroup targets, often in population proportions, using nonrandom selection inside each quota. This may balance selected characteristics but does not ensure balance on unmeasured ones. Known selection probabilities are generally unavailable. Its convenience and speed should be weighed against selection bias and limited probability-based generalisation.
