Question

Your game company recently released a new game. You want to find out more about those playing the game. You are interested in information about how much and why they play as well as in knowing more about their general demographics like gender, age, income, etc. Design a survey process that would allow you to find out this information. For the survey sample, you should include what the population is, the sampling method used, and how many will be surveyed. Discussion should include whether or not your sampling method may be biased and how you determined an appropriate number to survey. For the survey itself, list the questions you will ask and identify whether each is continuous, discrete, nominal, or ordinal. For all quantitative values, explain what distribution you expect them to have and why.

Explanation / Answer

Population: people that will play the new game

Sample: stratified (company )

How many: 150 ( size of the people in the company)

If we need to biased information we will need to determine the sample size using following formula

n = Z^2 * p*q / error^2

p = proportion that is represented in the population

q = 1 - p

Z it depends on grade of confidence of survey or test

Error it depend on how much error would likes to tolerate
