Question

You desire to do a study of likely voters in Michigan to determine whether they would support the reinstatement of the death penalty for those convicted of murdering public safety officers.

a) Formulate 3 pertinent questions that would be useful to ask in a survey, along with possible answer choices for your respondents (don’t ask for demographics…no questions on gender, age, etc.). Why would you ask these questions?

b) To whom would you distribute your survey? Why would this be an appropriate sample group?

c) What kind of literature base would you use to underlie your statistical information? Cite three examples of relevant scholarly literature. Be very specific about all of these answers.

Explanation / Answer

YES NO MAYBE

Q2) WILL DEATH PENALTY HELP IN CURBING MUDERS

YES NO MAY BE

Q3) IS DEATH PENALTY THE ONLY OPTION WE HAVE ?

YES NO MAY BE

THESE QUESTION SHOULD BE ASKED AS THIS WILL GIVE THE GENERAL SENTIMENT OF PEOPLE VIEW TOWARDS DEATH PENALTY

B) THIS SURVEY SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED TO THE ADULTS WHO HAVE THE RATIONAL MIND AND ALSO TO THE FAMILY OF THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LOVED ONES IN THE MURDERS.

C)SCHOLARY LITERATURE BY MAHATMA GANDHI WHO SAID NON VIOLENCE IS REAL POWER

BY KARL MARX WHO SAID THE THEFT AND THE MURDERS ARE THE RESULT OF CAPITALISM
