Multiple Choice

In an online survey, people were asked if they would cheat on their partner if there was no chance of getting caught. Approximately 23,000 internet users responded to the survey.

• A) Not enough people responded to the survey, which means the results are not valid.
• B) The survey involved respondents who volunteered to participate, so the sample was not representative of the overall population.
