Answer to Problem 30E

Non-sampling error

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The subject lies about past drug use.

First need to know about the sampling and non-sampling error.

Sampling error: It is caused by incorrectly selecting the individuals for the sample.

Non-sampling error: This error does not base on the selection of individuals for the sample.

Therefore, the subject lies about past drug is not based on the selection. Hence, it is a non-sampling error.

Answer to Problem 30E

Non-sampling error

Explanation of Solution

Given:

A typing error is made in recording the data.

First need to know about the sampling and non-sampling error.

Sampling error: It is caused by incorrectly selecting the individuals for the sample.

Non-sampling error: This error does not base on the selection of individuals for the sample.

Therefore, the typing error is not based on the selection. Hence, it is a non-sampling error.

c)

Answer to Problem 30E

Sampling error

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Data are gathered by asking people to mail in a coupon printed in a newspaper.

First need to know about the sampling and non-sampling error.

Sampling error: It is caused by incorrectly selecting the individuals for the sample.

Non-sampling error: This error does not base on the selection of individuals for the sample.

Therefore, the data is collected by mail only which does not be a representative of the population. So, it is based on the selection. Hence, it is a sampling error.
