To overcome limitations with existing datasets, the research teamconducted purposive sampling with minority-serving institutions and institutions whose highestdegree awarded is a master’s to capture the broad range of GPD experiences. Overall, 45Graduate Program Directors or Chairs were contacted over multiple rounds with a focus onensuring diverse participation across the criteria outlined previously.

If students are familiar with basic statistical techniques wecan differentiate between random and systematic errors and show that random errors can bereduced by averaging the results of repeated measurement. In this case, for random errors, therange can be replaced with  2s / n , where s is the experimental standard deviation and n is thenumber of samples averaged.
