Which of the following is an example of a survey method?
 
  personal interviews
  IQ test scores
  height/weight statistics
  school grades

Question 2

A reason why surveys might not be the most valid of research methods is because:
 
  many people give inaccurate responses to impress the interviewers.
  many people answer honestly but the interviewers do not believe them.
  even a representative sample of people will be biased.
  when asked the same questions again, responses differ.
