Selection bias

Selection bias is the bias introduced by the selection of individuals, groups, or data for analysis in such a way that proper randomization is not achieved, thereby failing to ensure that the sample obtained is representative of the population intended to be analyzed. It is sometimes referred to as the selection effect. The phrase "selection bias" most often refers to the distortion of a statistical analysis, resulting from the method of collecting samples. If the selection bias is not taken into account, then some conclusions of the study may be false. (Wikipedia).

Statistics Lesson #4: Sources of Bias

This video is for my College Algebra and Statistics students (and anyone else who may find it helpful). I define bias, and we look at examples of different types of bias, including voluntary response bias, leading question bias, and sampling bias. I hope this is helpful! Timestamps: 0:00

Mechanisms of Natural Selection Part 1: Types of Sexual Selection

We touched upon sexual selection when we learned about natural selection. Essentially when there is a variance in the reproductive success of a particular sex for a given species, secondary sex characteristics will develop in that species, because one sex has the opportunity to choose a ma

Selection

Paul Andersen explains the importance of selection in biology. Artificial selection occurs when humans choose traits that will be selected for or against. This has created the variety of domesticated animals and crops. He then describes the three main types of ecological natural selecti
