what three features should be present for a survey to be generalized to a larger population?

Question

answer choices:

bias-free question, less than 10 questions asked at least 10 percent of the population surveyed

asking true/false questions at least 10 percent of the population surveyed random selection of participants

random selection of participants at least 10 percent of the population surveyed bias free questions

random selection of participants unbiased questions at least 50 percent of the population surveyed

Answer 1

The best choice for ensuring that a survey can be generalized to a larger population is:

random selection of participants, unbiased questions, at least 50 percent of the population surveyed.

This combination minimizes bias and ensures that the sample is representative of the larger population. The use of random selection helps mitigate selection bias, unbiased questions ensure that responses are not influenced by leading questions, and surveying a sufficient percentage of the population (ideally at least 50 percent) increases the reliability of the results.
