A large school district is considering moving up the start date for the school year by two weeks. In order to determine if famil

ies would support this, surveys were mailed out to 1000 parents/guardians in the district. The survey said, "We believe that starting school two weeks earlier will be beneficial to the students in our District. Would you support moving up the start date for the school year by two weeks?" The School Board received 492 responses from the survey, 72% of which supported the proposal. -Describe a potential source of bias in the wording of the question. -Due to the bias described in part (a), is the sample proportion of 72% likely greater than or less than the actual proportion of families who support the proposal? Explain. -What type of sample was taken? -Less than half of those sent the letter returned a response. What type of bias is this?

Answer:

(a) Confirmation bias

(b) Likely less than actual proportion of families who support the proposal

(c) Random sample

(d) Nonresponse bias

Step-by-step explanation:

In confirmation bias, the researcher already has and intends to prove an assumption about the effect the of a treatment before carrying out the survey, such that the survey or research is tries to dictate to the participants in the survey about the desired outcome

In the question, the belief of the researcher is expressed to the participants in a form of brief at the start of the survey which is attempting to influence the responses to the survey, such that the actual result should be less than what was observed.
