Non-sampling errors can occur in any part of the research process other than the sample size. These errors include measurement errors, sampling frame errors, data collection errors, processing errors, and analysis errors. Summarization errors, field errors, and generalization errors are all types of non-sampling errors. Option E is incorrect because not all errors are related to sample size.
