This is the percentage of the sample group that chose a particular answer Usually this value is unknown until the survey has finished, so it cannot be used to compute the sample size before the survey has started There are two workarounds for this problem The first solution, which is used by the Sample Size Standard Calculator, is to simply use a value of 50% As demonstrated by the Confidence Interval Animated Calculator, that value represents the "worst case" confidence interval You will not get into trouble by using this first approach The second solution is possible when the percentage is known approximately, in which case the approximate value may be entered into the Sample Size Advanced Calculator to compute a more accurate sample size
