Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nonsampling errors are errors that occur in the data collection process that are not related to the sampling process. These errors are controllable, caused by faulty design or poor execution, cannot be directly measured, and reduce the quality of data collected. However, increasing the sample size does not necessarily minimize these errors.
