Question
3. The standard error measures:
the variability in the population
the variability of population parameters
the variability of sample statistics
the variability of the sampled observations
X Incorrect
This question refers to the following learning objective(s): Distinguish standard deviation (o or s) and standard
error (SE): standard deviation measures the variability in the data, while standard error measures the
variability in point estimates from different samples of the same size and from the same population, i.e.
measures the sampling variability.
The "variability of the sampled observations" is measured by the sample standard deviation s.
