Time and cost.\n\nThere is not enough man hours available to survey everyone...and not everyone will give you a response.

A convenience sample is a group of people surveyed that are chosen by the surveyer because they were easy to get (convenient), such as the surveyer's family or friends.  They may have a skewed response because they aren't random.  A random sample consists of people chosen without anything in common, such as picking the first name on each page of a phone book.

Survey, yes. Put something in the news paper in your target area for the people to respond to.

Although theoretically it would be very helpful for the seller have a survey done for all prospective buyers, it is very rarely done and obviously, you can't be sure if it is a truly accurate and unbiased survey.\n\nIt is expected that buyers commission their own surveys when buying a house in Scotland, though expensive, you can be sure that this survey is unbiased.

I would go onto Amazon, there are books you can purchase on how to write an effective market research survey that are really helpful.  I've used a few for classes in the past.  You have to remember that the questions can't be leading.

Surveys are carried out by an organisation called RAJAR. It works in a similar way to the BARB research for TV viewing - certain households are selected to keep a diary of their radio listening.

Try some standardsurvey companies.   Pinecone research, Surveysavvy, Greenfieldonline are some of the larger survey companies, who pay regularly . A list of companies you can join for free , with details of amounts you will receive as payment, is available at  http://tinyurl.com/mx9ga

First, people don't like getting phone call surveys, especially ones that ask odd questions.\n\nSecondly, calling random numbers (especially out of the phone book) isn't a very reliable way of getting data.  Too many people have cell phones and caller id, which is going to eliminate specific populations from your survey.\n\nThird, more often than not if you call a random number, the person receiving the call is probably doing something that is important to them  and doesn't want to be interrupted. Even if what they are doing isn't as helpful to them in the long run as what you are asking about, people resent being interrupted.\n\n\nFrankly, I haven't heard of this - maybe this isn't happening in Texas, or perhaps making people more aware of what the survey is for, before people are called, would get better results.  And allowing people to do the survey online or call the surveyors would improve your success as well.

I never believe any poll unless I know what questions were asked (exact wording required) and the actual answer given.  I have seen to many surveys with the questions designed to guarantee the results desired.

Actually, statistics books are notorious for being written in such a way that no normal human can understand them. The trick, generally, is trying to find a way to relate the problems to something you're interested in. For example, if you like basketball: one possible sampling distribution would be the number of free throws individual players make over a season. You could take a sample of, say, 10 of the players and find the mean and standard deviation. You could compute a 95% confidence interval with that information, which would allow you to say that you're 95% confident that the average number of free throws made by NBA players in a season will be between this number and that number. You could find the probability that a given player would make at least a certain number of free throws in a season by finding the z-score and looking it up on the normal probability distribution table, etc. If you're really struggling with the terminology, I recommend visiting your math help center on campus (most of them have one), or contacting a tutor.

A Survey can be useful if the questions are meaningful and people actually complete them honestly and then that they actually return them.\n\nI would say about 20% returned is good.\n\nThe ones which are short, to the point and have some incentive get returned. But these don't always provide the info you are looking for, especially if you want detailed data.\n\nYou need to weigh this against your goals and objective. You should have other means to obtain the data, such as Interviews, Someone observing and recording or test data.\n\nAnother approach for a survey, is to have a captured audiance such as at a school or an event which has a mix of people you want to survey.

SOME, but not ALL surveys pay you to take them, and they would send the money to you after you put in your personal address. If you want to know HOW they get the money, they do from the people they're giving the survey out for.
