In order to understand more about how people in the United States feel about the outcome of a recent criminal trial in which the

and share their opinion. By the end of the show, 522 people had voted in the poll, and 82% of respondents indicated they were unhappy with the verdict. Is the described sampling method likely to be biased? If so, identify the likely direction of the bias, and explain how a better sample could be obtained.

Answer:

The sampling method described is likely to be biased.

Explanation:

The survey shown above is a survey classified as a voluntary response survey. This type of research tends to have a strong statistical bias, especially when the answer involves personal opinions of the individuals who are answering the question. This is because this type of research, when a simple random sample is not established, tends to attract people with negative opinions on the topic.

Ideally, the program should have carried out a simple random sample, selecting viewers at random to respond to the survey.
