i think it should be either A or C

Nnesha (nnesha):

i think its c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah think u are right. ok go with C...needed response shld not affect the outcome because it's in sample ...

Nnesha (nnesha):

ok thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are u sure it's C... still i am confused...A option says FOCUSED needed response..what does that mean?

Nnesha (nnesha):

i'm not sure i'm just guessing

Nnesha (nnesha):

@jim_thompson5910 can you tell me i'm right or not

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I agree with C. The people leaving the baseball game will most likely list baseball players which makes this survey biased. To fix this, the researchers should randomly call up people to make sure things are more representative.
