Quizplus · Accepted Answer

SSE represents the variation within treatments, or the random variation that cannot be explained by the differences between treatments. Therefore, the best choice is B, within-treatments variation. Choice A refers to the total variation, which includes both within- and between-treatments variation. Choice C refers to the variation between treatments, which is measured by the sum of squares due to treatments, or SST. Choice D is not the correct answer, as there is a clear answer for this question.
