what statistics are you refering to? in my city, iv'e done a study on black and white "delinquints" from the ages of 13-18. in many cases we've seen that they white delinquints got their charges dropped, or were offered PTI, (Pre trial Intervention) wherein the cases of the black delinquints were sent to the juvenile correctionall facilities. I'm nopt trying to play a race card, but the study said what we had thought all along. with pti you are excused, nothing goes on your permanent record. With a juvenile facility, it is on your record, and you become a "statistic". I would like to think that you are not being anything but curious with asking this type of question over the internet. hope that this gives you a broader outlook on what the variables are when tallying for statistics. later.

They done a recent study about this. Please check the source site. However, it's a good idea to double check facts because some people have lied on that site.

I think the answer would be 1), though it is a stupid question. The right way to frame the question would be around a confidence interval.

variations matter greatly in interpreting data.  Something might seem like it is returning significantly different results than the control but stat evaluation may show that the variations are minimal at best

Probably between 6-8 percent, just like the general population. I don't know where you got the 1% from, but it's wrong.

A or B. But mostly A. Not guarantee though.

I'm assuming the quote is meant to be a joke, but actually, it would be very surprising to find out that 50% of children are of below average intelligence. This would imply that the arithmetic mean of children's intelligence was identically equal to the median, an unusual observation.

while i would agree with the other 2 answeres to a point.  If the poll is being conducted by the same organization, say Wall Street Journal, then you can assume that they used the same procedures and sampling selection as the previous poll.  While it may be better to show all the assumptions, the core results would show a shift in the average.  Now take a USAToday poll and the Christian Science Monitor, and the comparison may be totally invalid.

False. Some people can handle more than others.

Well, when someone gets too many answers they may want to know which is more accurate and a way to find that out is to know how many other people think that way, it is not about popularity, the asker wants an answer.
