Question

What could a person collecting data for a survey do to avoid age bias in the results?

Answer 1

Answer:

The online survey  has large biases concerning representativeness. Regarding the behavioural characteristics of consumers, the face-to-face data delivers the best results, followed by the telephone interviews and finally the online survey.

Face-to-face surveys still deliver the most representative results. Telephone surveys may provide a good alternative, but we would advise use of a larger sample. The online  survey needs to be corrected, one should relinquish representativeness.
