This creates bias because individuals with strong opinions about the survey issues or those with substantial knowledge will tend to be over-represented. Bias can occur because respondents may tend consistently to have views that are more extreme than those of the population in general. Bias will occur. • The wording of questions, the order in which they are asked and the number and type of options offered can influence survey results. • Answers given by respondents do not always reflect their true beliefs because they may feel under social pressure not to give an unpopular or socially undesirable answer. • Answers given by respondents may be influenced by the desire to impress an interviewer. • If people who refuse to answer are different, with respect to survey issues, from those who respond .This can also happen with people who are never contacted and people who have yet to make up their mind.
