Your book suggests that there are three questions that you need to ask to assess sample quality. What are they? Then answer each of those three questions for this sample: CDC's NISVS study, noninstitutionalized (e.g., not in nursing homes, prison, and so on) English- and/or Spanish-speaking residents aged 18 and older were randomly selected through an RDD sampling method in 2010. 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.
