An anonymous survey was conducted among healthcare providers. One of the items on the survey was, "Rank the following items in order of their importance to you as a healthcare provider (i.e., why did you go into the health professions) (1 being most important; 5 being least important)." The results of the survey showed that healthcare providers consider "Gain social prominence" and "Make a good living" to be the least important reasons for their entering the healthcare professions, while "Respond to the healthcare needs of my patients" and "Contribute to the health of society as a whole" were the most important reasons for their entering the healthcare professions. What type of bias may be taking place here? A. Expectation bias B. Social desirability bias C. Observer bias D. Selective outcome reporting bias E. Verification bias

A volunteer is recruited to complete a research survey about different types of mental illness. The survey is divided into several sections related to different types of disorders. In each section, there are critical questions listed related to dangerous symptoms of disorders. The participant is told that if he responds positively to any of the critical questions that he will be interviewed by a graduate student to ensure that he is not in serious risk. After responding "yes" to a critical question in the first section, the participant finds he is very attracted to the graduate student sent in to interview him. The student then proceeds to respond "yes" to most remaining critical questions in the hopes of getting a date. What type of bias does this represent? a. experimenter expectancy effects O b. reliability bias O c. sampling bias O d. response bias A
