when the respondent misrepresent the truth which leads to a bias in the results. unconscious misreprsentation. self selection bias i.e. restaurant surveys deliberate falsification.Explanation
A response error refers to when the respondent misrepresents the truth, which can introduce bias into the results. This can occur due to unconscious misrepresentation, where the respondent may unintentionally provide inaccurate information. Self-selection bias, such as in restaurant surveys, can also contribute to response errors as certain individuals may be more likely to participate, leading to a skewed representation of the population. Additionally, deliberate falsification, where the respondent intentionally provides false information, can also be considered a response error.Rate this question:
- 43.
What types of response bias are there?
Correct Answer(s)
interviewer bias and social desirablity.Explanation
The types of response bias mentioned in the answer are interviewer bias and social desirability. Interviewer bias occurs when the interviewer's behavior or characteristics influence the respondent's answers. This can happen if the interviewer unintentionally prompts or leads the respondent towards a particular response. Social desirability bias, on the other hand, refers to the tendency of respondents to provide answers that are socially acceptable or desirable, rather than their true beliefs or behaviors. Both biases can affect the accuracy and reliability of survey or interview responses.Rate this question:

By directly approaching individuals at their homes or in shopping centres, researchers have a better chance of engaging with potential participants and convincing them to take part in the survey. Additionally, these surveys often have a higher completion rate. This means that participants are more likely to fully complete the survey, providing more accurate and reliable data. Lastly, the answer also mentions that the shape and size of the object being referred to does not change on the application of force. However, this statement seems unrelated to the advantages of door to door and shopping centre surveys.Rate this question:
- 49.
What are the disadvantages of door to door and shopping centres
Correct Answer(s)
participation rate is low possible interviewer biasExplanation
The disadvantages of door-to-door and shopping centers are that the participation rate is low and there is a possibility of interviewer bias. The low participation rate means that not many people may be willing to engage in these methods of data collection or shopping. This can result in limited data or customer reach. Additionally, there is a potential for interviewer bias, where the interviewers' personal opinions or preferences may influence the results or shopping experiences.Rate this question:
