Our Discussion
WEAKNESSES: There was some weaknesses with our study including non-response bias and response bias. Many students who we sampled attended Polaris or PESOP full time so that resulted in non-response bias. We had response bias because students had either forgot to circle their gender or favorite sport, or they circled more than one sport. We also had another weakness because the questions on our survey could have been worded differently. Some confounding variables in our study was the difficulty level of the classes the student was in and the amount of time a student spends on the sport rather than starting their projects.
EXTRAPOLATION: The population of North Olmsted High School is unique to North Olmsted High School and we don't feel comfortable expanding our study to other populations.
FURTHER STUDY: If we were to do another study about procrastination and favorite sport to play, we would have to increase the population by sampling more students at North Olmsted High School.
