Question 29

Evelyn is an organizational psychologist investigating whether there is a relationship between the number of remote-working hours per week and self-reported job satisfaction. To gather data, she posts an invitation on a professional networking platform, asking for volunteer software developers to click a link and complete an online questionnaire. Forty-five developers respond and complete the survey, providing details of their weekly remote hours and rating their job satisfaction on a scale of 1 to 100.

Explain one strength and one weakness of using this sampling method for Evelyn's study.
