Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is E because it is not relevant in terms of controlling interviewers who are not following the sampling plan. The other options (A, B, C, and D) are all relevant in tracking the progress of individual interviewers and ensuring that they are following the sampling plan. Keeping records of which subjects were selected is important for calculating response rates and assessing the representativeness of the sample, but it does not directly relate to controlling interviewer behavior.
