Problem: Statistics are used frequently in news articles on just about any topic you can think of. We're in an election cycle now and we hear and read statistics every single day about the popularity of the candidates with the voters who are being surveyed. If you want to explore this use of statistics, find a news situation dealing with your own profession as a nurse and try to answer the following questions:
Question 1: Summarize and provide the link to an article that uses statistics.
Question 2: Discuss the sampling strategy or the analysis used.
Question 3: How could this information help someone make decisions.
