I am working on unequal sample size data. I have collected two sets of samples. One group comprises of habit forming group and the other one is the non-habit forming group. I have sent a set of questionnaires to both the groups. 52 subjects from habit forming group answered the questionnaire and 136 subjects from non-habit group answered. Shall I perform random selection through SPSS and select 52 samples? Is that allowed?
Will I have an issue when I publish the paper?
