Determine whether the given source has the potential to create a bias in a statistical study An article in Journal of Nutrition Vol 130 No 8 noted that chocolate is rich in flavonoids The article notes regular consumption of foods rich in flavonoids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease The study received funding from Mars Inc the candy company and the Chocolate Manufacturers Association Choose the correct answer below OA The data do not seem to support the claims being made by the article The article s author should consult an expert to make sure that he or she is correctly interpreting the study s results OB The questions used in the study might have caused the respondents to give inaccurate or dishonest responses The question wording should be changed to be more neutral OC The researchers may have been more inclined to provide favorable results because funding was provided by a party with a definite interest The bias could have been avoided if the researchers were not paid by the candy company and the chocolate manufacturers D Since the sample is self selected there is a definite participation bias in this study The researchers should randomly select the subjects of the study
