Teens and their TV sets According to a Gallup Poll report, 64% of teens aged 13 to 17 have TVs in their rooms. Here is part of the footnote to this report:
These results are based on telephone interviews with a randomly selected national sample of 1028 teenagers in the Gallup Poll Panel of households, aged 13 to 17. For results based on this sample, one can say . . . that the maximum error attributable to sampling and other random effects is ±3 percentage points. In addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of public opinion polls.16
(a) We omitted the confidence level from the footnote. Use what you have learned to determine the confidence level, assuming that Gallup took an SRS.
(b) Give an example of a “practical difficulty” that could lead to biased results for this survey
