However, with growing emphasis placed on representative inclusion in research by the public and research funders, a practical, evidence-based approach to capture inclusive and representative research samples, minimize bias and promote equity is required3. This would avoid a mechanistic approach that negl...

Ideally, you would study the whole population; in practice, you don’t have time or capacity. But care in your sample selection, both size and method, will ensure that your research does not fall into the traps of either introducing bias, or lacking precision. This, in turn, will give ...
It is to be expected that there will be an increase in the value of the MSE when using the scrambled responses compared to using the actual X, Y values, that is, MSE(2) is expected to be larger than MSE(1), but the percent relative bias may increase or decrease. Thus we define a...
Research summary Patent data is a valued source of information for strategy research. However, patent‐based studies may suffer from sample selection bias given that patents result from within‐firm selection processes and hence do not represent the full population of inventions. We assess how ...
“count” a little more is a frequently used option; this will reduce potential bias, but it depends on the degree to which the cases that are missing are similar to the nonmissing cases with the same characteristics (again, e.g., ethnicity or socioeconomic status), with respect to other...
However, we are not aware of studies that control for sample selection bias. It is expected that this study will not only be helpful for the country concerned, but also provide useful guidance for future demand studies. The analytical framework used in the study can also be applied to other...
