Bias and Error: Transcript

What can go wrong Samples that do not represent every individual in the population fairly is said to be biased Bias is the one thing above all to avoid when sampling We need to be sure that the statistics we compute from the sample are representative of our population. So sampling bias is consistent error that arises due to the sample selection For example a survey of high school students to measure teenage use of illegal drugs will be a biased sample because it does not include home schooled students or dropouts Peter J.
