Voluntary response sample


A survey of affluent Americans (those with incomes of $75,000 or more) indicated that 56% would rather have more time than more money.

(a) What conditions on how the data were collected would make the generalization from the sample to the population of affluent Americans reasonable? (Select all that apply.)

The definition of affluent Americans was having a household income of over $75,000.

The sample used was a simple random sample.

The study was based on voluntary response sample.

(b) Would it be reasonable to generalize from the sample to say that 56% of all Americans would rather have more time than more money?

Yes, the results can be generalized.

No, this sample is not representative of all Americans.

There is not enough data to make the conclusion.
