In my opinion these collection data tools are valid as scientific tools because these facts come up by doing deep surveys. ALL the facts are thougrouly observed.
2. Do you think your results would be if you took the on-line questionnaire at a different time, on a different day? Why or why not? (In research this is part of what is called reliability
It depends on your mood. If u are happy you will get positive results but if u are not happy n frustrated or stressed by somthing that is going in ur life you will get negative result.

POPULATION OF PAKISTAN
It is estimated that the Pakistan's population will be over 180,000,000 by mid 2008. Pakistan had an estimated population of 169,300,000 as of July 2007,. During 1951-98, Pakistan's urban population expanded sevenfold. And by the next decade the population is expected to exceed 176 million.In the past, the country's population had a relatively high growth rate that has, however, been moderated by declining fertility and birth rates. Dramatic social changes have led to rapid urbanization and the emergence of megacities. During 1990-2003, Pakistan sustained its historical lead as the most urbanized nation in South Asia, with city dwellers making up 34% of its population.
Pakistan has a multicultural and multi ethical society and hosts one of the largest refugee populations in the world as well as a young population.
, Pakistan currently has population of 164.6 million which is expected to reach 304.7 million by the year 2050.Even though there have been a number of support programmes dealing with family planning and reproductive health issues, there has not been significant impact. Our fertility rate has been stagnant at around 4.1 to 4.9 percent for last many decades. Contraceptive prevalence rate in Pakistan is only 28 percent.
