Answer:

C. Volunteer bias

Explanation:

Volunteer bias can be define as the way in which a particular set of people volunteer to participate or are contacted to participate in survey or study.

People who are chosen or those who decide to participate in a task do not represent the over all population because they are choosing among group of people and they may be either male or female to participate.

Volunteer bias can sometimes in some cases leave out the less empowered people in a population who are willing and ready to participate.

The problems the study is most likely to have due to high male participation is VOLUTEER BIAS.

Answer:

C. Volunteer bias        

Explanation:

Volunteer bias occurs in a study when the number of people who willing participate in a study is skewed towards a particular sect, gender, race or class. That is the participants, respondents or subjects of the experiment are not a representation of the general population of interest. For example, in the scenario presented in the question, the volunteers are skewed towards males and the study on sexuality is aimed at the general population of males and females. When this bias occurs, the validity of the result is reduced as the result of the study cannot be applied to the initially intended population, hence the external validity of the result of the study is threatened.
