Question:

Researchers sent out a survey to U.S. war veterans that asked a series of questions, including whether individuals surveyed were smokers or nonsmokers (Seltzer et al. 1974). They found that nonsmokers were 27% more likely than smokers to respond to the survey within 30 days (based on the much larger number of smokers and nonsmokers who eventually responded). Hypothetically, if the study had ended after 30 days, what effect would this have on the estimate of the proportion of veterans who smoke? (Use terminology you learned in this chapter to describe the effect.)
