Module 1 discussion
Sampling Bias
Sampling is a major way to collect data, and there are
different sampling methods.
Please identify one sampling method and discuss the sampling
bias related to this method.
Also explain how the sampling bias could impact the validity
and generalizability of data analysis results, as well as the business decision
making.
Week 1: Provide your initial discussion post to the
question. Be sure to include references to any resources you used. You should
use at least one resource to help you with your initial discussion.
Week 2: Respond to at least two of your classmates’ initial
posts. Your response should be substantive and further the discussion. It is OK
to be critical and use critical thinking. That means you can question what your
classmates say. Do they provide their own critical thinking and logic?
