Self selected sample is one in which the researcher puts out a call for volunteers and creates the sample .

In Random sampling each sample has an equal probability of being chosen.

Bias sample is one where sample is collected in such a way that some members of the intended population are less likely to be included than others.

In systematic sampling a random sample from among a larger population.

Favorite color of the school is blue is systematic sample.
