Dr. Wiseman wants to know about the alcohol consumption patterns among college juniors in the United States. He should __________

A) give the survey to every college junior in the country.
B) remember that sample size is the most critical factor in survey research.
C) require students' names on each survey to avoid the tendency to lie.
D) draw a representative sample among college juniors.

Dr. Wiseman should draw a representative sample among college juniors, which means selecting a group of college juniors that is as close as possible to the entire population of college juniors in the United States. This will ensure that the findings accurately represent the alcohol consumption patterns among college juniors in the country. Giving the survey to every college junior in the country is not feasible or practical, and relying solely on sample size is not enough to ensure representative results. Requiring students' names on each survey may cause respondents to be less honest and may compromise the accuracy of the data.
