- What is a sample space?arrow_forwardWhat is meant by the sample space of an experiment?arrow_forwardAs discussed in the Wall Street Journal story, weighting is designed to adjust poll results to give more weight to people whose demographic characteristics are under-represented in the sample and less weight to people whose demographic characteristics are over-represented. Think about how certain demographic groups might end up being under or over-represented (that is, there are too many or too few people in the sample from that group, compared to the population as a whole). Weighting can therefore potentially help fix which types of bias? (Check all that apply.) selection bias non-response bias response biasarrow_forward

- Many delivery trucks feature a "How Am I Driving?” sticker on the rear bumper, along with a phone number. This sticker allows drivers to report erratic driving by the truck driver or offer a compliment if they like. A dispatcher at the trucking station accepts calls and records information from those who call the phone number. The dispatcher reports that in the past month, 218 calls were received. Of those calls, 178 reported negative driving behaviors by the truck drivers. How might this data-collection method produce bias in obtaining an estimate of all drivers who are satisfied with the company’s truck drivers? This sample may lead to nonresponse bias because many drivers may not call the phone number. This sample may lead to undercoverage bias because some drivers will be more likely to be included in the sample. The sample may lead to response bias because some who call the phone number may not provide a truthful opinion. This sample may lead to voluntary response bias because…arrow_forwardMany delivery trucks feature a "How Am I Driving?” sticker on the rear bumper, along with a phone number.
