Question

(f) suppose only 46% of the students you selected for the sample respond. what is the nonresponse rate (in percent)?

do you think the nonresponse rate might introduce bias into the study? explain.
no, the people choosing not to respond probably dont have characteristics that would bias the study.
no, the people choosing to respond probably dont have characteristics that would bias the study.
yes, the people choosing not to respond may have some characteristics that would bias the study.
yes, the people choosing to respond may have some characteristics that would bias the study.
(g) would it be appropriate to generalize the results of your study to all work - study students in the nation? explain.
no, the sample frame is restricted to one campus.
yes, the sample frame is for all campuses.
no, results only apply to the students sampled.
yes, the sample is random so the results can be applied anywhere.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate non - response rate

100% - 46% = 54%

Step2: Analyze non - response bias

Non - responders may have different characteristics, introducing bias.

Step3: Evaluate generalizability

If sample frame is one campus, can't generalize to all nation's work - study students.

Answer:

54
Yes, the people choosing not to respond may have some characteristics that would bias the study.
No, the sample frame is restricted to one campus.
