The subjects in the dataset answered a call for volunteers to participate to this study. Assuming every subject who volunteered has a recorded response for every variable, what kind of bias could possibly result from this sampling design?

Answer:

Response Bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Response bias occurs when participants in a research study have a tendency to reply falsely to research surveys. It is mainly caused by poor survey design, example ambiguous use of likert scale in survey questions. In this case, participants have a pre-recorded response to survey questions which would not accurately represent the population as participant replies are likely to be false.
