Overview: Determining a minimum threshold population for your quantitative study is critical for achieving a quality study.  Conversely, qualitative studies focus less on a minimum population; instead, they have a greater focus on the concept of data saturation and knowing when to cease data collection. Understanding these procedures is paramount in completing both your IRB application and effectively writing the sampling procedures portion of chapter three. In this discussion board, you will have the opportunity to conduct either a G*Power Analysis (quantitative) or a explore data saturation (qualitative). 

Directions: Select the prompt below based on your dissertation’s chosen methodology. 

• Qualitative: Review the article . Additionally, you may use the university databases to further review the concept of saturation in qualitative studies. Then, write a proposal for determining saturation of data in your study. You will post your proposal for data saturation procedures to the discussion board and reply to one of your classmates providing feedback on their post.
