A staff member recently completed a survey that will be used to inform the comprehensive plan. One of the questions read "What community do you live in?". Your staff member lets you know that there is a problem. Only 1/3 of the respondents provided the name of the neighborhood they live in, some provided a city or others an area of a city. She wants your help in understanding what happened. You say:
A. You explain that this will result in a regression error because the data cannot be coded properly.
B. You explain this was a problem with the clarity of the question and that she should have written the question to use the word neighborhood.
C. You explain this is an example of a nonsampling error because the respondents misinterpreted the intention of the question.
D. You explain that this is an example of a sampling error as there was a non-representative sample that resulted in an inadequate number of responses from different areas of the city
