A questionnaire is being devised to collect data from a sample of single South African adults to answer the following two research questions:
A. Are single men and single women equally likely to prefer cats and dogs as pets?
B. Is there a difference between single South African men and women in how many pets they own?
Assess each of the questions below for inclusion in the questionnaire: Should the question be included or not? Explain your choice by discussing the necessity, relevance, clarity and lack of bias of each of the suggested questions. A question should only be included if it satisfies all these criteria, and you should only include questions which are needed to answer the two research questions. (Note that you need to assess the questions as a researcher. We are not asking you to answer these questions yourself!)
a) please indicate your gender (options: male/ female)
