A large company wants to find out what team-building activity its employees prefer. Which of the following samples can give the most valid generalization?(1 point)
A. 400 randomly chosen employees from the list of all employees
B. all 624 female employees in the company
C. all employees who have worked in the company for 5 years or more
D. a group with one member from each department
A. 400 randomly chosen employees from the list of all employees.
To obtain the most valid generalization for the preferred team-building activity, the option that provides the most representative sample would be the most suitable.
A. 400 randomly chosen employees from the list of all employees: This option provides a random sample from the entire employee population, which would represent a diverse range of perspectives and preferences. This could potentially provide a valid generalization for the entire company.
Therefore, option A would give the most valid generalization.
