Question

Suppose I want to study the impact of taking an on-line course on a student’s perception of online courses. I survey new-to-online learning students before and after the semester and compare the two results. Is that sampling is dependent or independent?

a) The sampling is dependent because an individual selected for one sample does not dictate which individual is to be in the second sample.

b) The sampling is dependent because an individual selected for one sample does dictate which individual is to be in the second sample.

c) The sampling is independent because an individual selected for one sample does not dictate which individual is to be in the second sample.

d) The sampling is independent because an individual selected for one sample does dictate which individual is to be in the second sample.
