Question

What is not a potential source of bias: Of the 2000 students attending, every 5th student going into the basketball game is asked if the school should spend more money on sports. Question 8 options: Students at the game are more likely to be interested in sports. Asking only students, not adults. Not a large enough sample. The survey is conducted at only one sport event.

Answer 1

I think it is C, not a large enough sample.

Answer 2

Not a large enough sample

Explanation:

Every 5th student going into the basketball game implies that 1/5 of the attendance would be surveyed, that make it a representative sample, so it is not a potential source of bias.

A biased sample implies that the sample doesn't represent the population. If you ask people if the school should spend more money on sports in a sport event, they are likely to say yes.

If you ask only students, not adults, you are avoiding people in purpose.

To get a representative sample, you should consider more than one sport.
