Your task is to answer the following questions for my program evaluations course.
1) In class last week we covered the reliability with regard to survey questions. Review the following questions and determine if they are reliable. For each question below determine if it is reliable (unbiased) or unreliable (biased). If the question is unreliable state what type of biased question it is! such as negative questions or double-barreled questions and justify your response! NUMBER each answer accordingly before answering (like "1C. This question is…" ) so I know which question you are referring to. Use this website to assist you: 11 Biased & Unbiased Question Examples in Surveys https://www.formpl.us/blog/biased-survey-question-example , feel free to research your own to understand the concept further. NO HEADERS OR TITLES.
