Chemical evolution models for the local Galactic disk are combined with stellar evolutionary tracks to simulate real stellar samples in a Monte Carlo-like approach. These synthetical samples enable to study the significance of selection bias in major observational constraints on chemical evolution models: the (O/H) distribution of long-lived stars and the age-(O/H) relation (AOR). It is found that selection effects do not much alleviate the G-dwarf problem and that there is essentially no selection bias in the AOR. It is difficult, however, to fit both constraints by the same simple chemical evolution model.
