A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
We conducted this survey through a self-selection, non-probability sampling. In order to attempt to gather a variety of respondent-types, we varied the survey headlines used. This helped to gain the attention of both “environmentally minded” and “parking-driving minded” respondents.
We maintained a margin of error of 3 in student sampling by receiving 920 responses across a total population size of 10,350 students, (FTE).
