Your book suggests that there are three questions that you need to ask to assess sample quality. What are they?

A total of 9,970 women and 8,079 men were selected. Approximately, 45% of the interviews were conducted by landline and 55% by cell phone. The final sample represented the U.S. population very well. For example, the proportion of the sample by gender, race/ethnicity, and age in the NISVS sample was very close to the sample proportions for the U.S. population as a whole.
