I’m a bit confused about whether multiple locations are necessary for statistical significance. I feel like it might not be essential, but I could be wrong.

I think we practiced a question similar to this, and I recall that having a homogeneous population is important, so maybe I and III are the right choices?

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the sample size being greater than 10 might not be enough on its own to ensure significance.

I'm pretty sure the key conditions are that the sample must be random and the population must be homogeneous. The sample size and multiple locations don't seem as critical.

Okay, let me see. The population needs to be homogeneous, and the sample has to be random. I think those are the two main things to focus on for statistical significance.

Okay, I think I've got this. The question is asking which phase of the PDCA cycle assesses the effectiveness of the BCMS against the business continuity policy requirements. That sounds like it would be the "Check" phase, where you evaluate the results.

Hmm, multiple locations? Isn't that just going to introduce more variability? I think I'll stick with C, II and III. Seems the most logical to me.
