Quota Sampling

Explanation:

According to my research on the different types of sampling designs, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the design being reflected in this situation is a Quota Sampling Design. This is a technique where researchers try to find certain traits in their respondents, and then uses a set number of samples from the interested groups. Which is what Holstein has done in this situation by using the gender and class level as the specific trait in order to then interview a set percentage of the population that he had determined.
