Rater bias occurs when an evaluator's values or prejudices distort the rating. The leniency error is when an evaluator rates everyone too positively, the halo effect is when an evaluator allows a single characteristic to influence their overall rating, and a sampling error occurs when the sample being evaluated is not representative of the overall population.
