A reseаrcher believes thаt funnier cоllege students аre mоre intelligent because crafting and delivering a jоke requires cleverness and expert timing.  She performs her study a large/diverse group of randomly select college students.  Participants are told the purpose of the study and then they have their IQ and 'funniness level' evaluated. The researcher gives the participants a short IQ test and then she individually evaluates their 'best' joke on a 5 point scale that goes from 'very bad' to 'very good'.  The IQ test was identical for all the subjects; they all had the same amount of time and took the test in the same environment.  Both the IQ and the joke evaluations were performed in the same room. After analyzing the results she concludes that her hypothesis was correct.  What type of bias(es) might be playing a role here and how could it have been prevented? Select ALL that apply.
