The requirement of probable cause works in tandem with the warrant requirement. A warrant is a document that allows police to search a person, search a person's property, or arrest a person. A judicial magistrate or judge must approve and sign a warrant before officers may act on it.robable cause must exist for a law enforcement officer to make an arrest without a warrant, search without a warrant, or seize property in the belief the items were evidence of a crime.
For the purpose of surveys, one type of question asked is the closed-ended (also closed or dichotomous) question, usually requiring a yes/no answer or the choice of an option(s) from a list (see also multiple choice).
When the question is asking about an objective fact, such as the religious affiliation of the respondent, more categories can be used. For example, Pew Research Centerâs standard religion question includes 12 different categories, beginning with the most common affiliations (Protestant and Catholic).
