  b. the cooperation of the staff and their organizations are directly proportional to the intrusiveness of the data collection
  c. if the research project is likely to save the agency money or improve staff performance the chances of enlisting assistance is greater
  d. all of the above are accurate

Question 2

In the text, an example was given concerning the difficulty in trying to measure how much crime happened to victims who were not residents of South Florida. Since police only routinely kept records on where victims stayed locally (such as hotel addresses) researchers could have an additional question added to the incident recording form asking for the victim's permanent address. All of the following would be benefits of that except:
 
  a. it is much cheaper to add a question to a form than collecting the data oneself
  b. it is much more expensive to add a question to a form because it requires all the forms to be reprinted
  c. it allows for more control over the measurement process
  d. it enhances the reliability of data collection
