The phrase "a desirable sample" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts such as research, surveys, or product testing to refer to a sample that meets certain criteria or standards.
Example: "In our study, we aimed to collect a desirable sample that accurately represents the population we are investigating."
Alternatives: "an ideal sample" or "a preferred sample".
While heterogeneity in qualitative research is a desirable sampling feature, in LQR it is the "change" in events that is of more importance, and depicting change in very heterogeneous populations may not be so meaningful.
Thus, based on obtained information, it is possible to design a future, desirable sampling strategy, which could reduce the number of sampling stations and associated costs for effective river water quality management.
The main limitation was that our study was underpowered as the desirable sample size to elicit a statistically significant difference at the deep infection rates was 834 fractures.
The strengths of this study included study design (RCT), measuring objective outcomes and high prediction, and relatively desirable sample size.
The desirable sample plants at first were sun dried for few days and then oven dried at 40°C for nearly 24 h for easy grinding.
For our ANCOVA analyses, the desirable sample size was calculated as 158 for the effect size 0.25 to achieve 80% power.
The overlap weights also possess a desirable small-sample exact balance property, based on which we propose a new method that achieves exact balance for means of any selected set of covariates.
Limitations include the relatively small number of rheumatic disease subjects in this pool of available subjects, a lower-than-desirable sample of clinically severe subjects, and the lack of ethnic diversity.
We consider users who tend to tweet with hashtags commonly used by others as desirable sampling candidates as their hashtag use is more likely to cover the use of a broader set of users.
We consider users who tend to tweet with novel hashtags as desirable sampling candidates as they are more likely to attend to new topics or information about newly emerging events.
