Question

1. if analyzing data indicates a company should only hire people with a college degree because they stay at the company longer, what is this a potential indication of?

a. good data management practices leading to good hiring practices
b. frequency analysis to identify commonalities in the data
c. bias in collecting the data
d. data assessment and inquiry of hiring practices

Explanation:

The question is about data analysis in hiring practices. Option C is correct because basing hiring solely on college degrees (even if data shows they stay longer) may reflect bias in data collection (e.g., excluding non - degree holders who could also be good employees). Option A is wrong as this isn't good hiring practice. Option B is incorrect as it's not just about identifying commonalities. Option D is wrong as it's not a proper assessment but a biased approach.

Answer:

C. Bias in collecting the data
