Select the type of sample that has been formed in each presented situation:

		Simple random sample	Stratified random sample	Voluntary response sample	Multistage sample
a)	A company is investigating working conditions throughout their operations and has offered employees the opportunity to complete a questionnaire on this subject.
b)	The island nation of South Nakaratu is planning for development of their public transport system. In order to help with this, 200 randomly selected citizens of the country are chosen from the general population and are required to complete a survey relating to their use of public transport and desired changes.
c)	It is suspected that a new medical treatment for influenza may affect men and women differently. A group of 30 males is randomly selected and a group of 30 women is randomly selected. The treatment is then applied to this group of 60 randomly selected people.

Expert Solution

a) A company is investigating working conditions throughout their operations and has offered employees the opportunity to complete a questionnaire on this subject. - Voluntary response sample
(The respondent voluntarily chooses to respond to the questionnaire)

b) The island nation of South Nakaratu is planning for development of their public transport system. In order to help with this, 200 randomly selected citizens of the country are chosen from the general population and are required to complete a survey relating to their use of public transport and desired changes. - Simple random sample
(The sample is randomly chosen from population)

c) It is suspected that a new medical treatment for influenza may affect men and women differently. A group of 30 males is randomly selected and a group of 30 women is randomly selected. The treatment is then applied to this group of 60 randomly selected people. - Stratified random sample
(The population is divided into strata (male and female) first and then samples are selected randomly from all strata)
