Determining whether a question is biased or fair requires an analysis of its wording and the potential influences it may have on the respondent. Let's break down each question to evaluate its bias:
6. Will you vote for the young inexperienced candidate, Mr. Soong, or the experienced candidate, Ms. Lopez?
This question is biased because it presents a contrast between the young, inexperienced candidate and the experienced candidate, potentially influencing the respondent's perception of the candidates. By labeling one candidate as "young and inexperienced" and the other as "experienced," the question implies that experience is more favorable, which results in bias.
7. Will you vote for Mr. Soong or Ms. Lopez?
This question has the potential to be fair because it doesn't provide any additional information or prejudice towards either candidate. It simply asks the respondent to choose between the two candidates. However, it is important to note that even seemingly fair questions can be biased if they are part of a larger context that promotes bias.
In conclusion, question 6 is biased due to the contrast and labeling of the candidates, while question 7 has the potential to be fair, although it also depends on the context in which it is asked.
