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.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
