A political pollster is trying Stratified random sampling
to predict the results of an
upcoming New York City
mayoral election. She
knows from past research
that voters' candidate
preferences tend to depend
on whether or not they are
college educated. She gets
access to a registry of all
residents of New York City.
She then randomly selects
people from the registry
who are vs. are not college
educated in proportion to
that group's representation
in the New York City
population. That way, her
sample will have a similar
educational breakdown to
the NYC population as a
whole. Which sampling
method is this?

Which of the following Systematic sampling
sampling methods requires
having a list or registry of
all members of the
population?
A researcher is interested in Covariance
whether running improves
joint health among older
adults. He asks older adults
at various retirement
homes to complete a
survey.
The survey includes two
questions:
How many times do you go
running in an average
week?
0 times, 1 or more times
How would you rate your
joint health? 1 = poor, 3 =
average, 5 = excellent
The researcher finds that
participants who reported
going on a run 1 or more
times per week reported
better joint health, on
average, than did
participants who reported
going on a run 0 times per
week, p = .023.

physiological measure,
heart rate
variability, varies over time or
whether it is a trait that stays
stable within the same
person over time. She
records participants' heart
rate variability once at the
beginning of the semester
and once at the end of the
semester. She finds a high
positive
correlation (r = .55) between
the first and
second time points. Which of
