I am doing some research about whether or not internet surveys represent the population evenly, or if they are prone to sampling errors. Post a link to an internet survey, already with results, that you feel has a sampling error. For example, one where men are misrepresented because the web site is catered toward women.
Thank you so much.|||Like everyone else said, there%26#039;ll always be that margin of error in any survey but in general I don%26#039;t think they%26#039;re very representative of the population. Case in point:

Hope that helps a bit dear. =)|||Every survey has a margin of error due to people
taking the survey will not answer honestly, will
take duplicate surveys and give different answers.
Most surveys try and poll a diverse group of people
unless the survey is specificaly designed to poll
a certain group of people.|||Seldom, if ever!|||considering Internet access across a world, i think, that surveys might be just about right in developed countries in contrary to the third world but errors are made everywhere, humans do mistakes|||In general, the multiple choice questions do not always give you the choice you would choose. I have noticed that when I take a survery. I don%26#039;t have any specifics though.|||Any poll is going to have sample errors. Polling only internet users increases the error margin, look how many older people don%26#039;t use internet.
