Question

The headline of a news report reads “Nurses sleep less before a scheduled shift, hindering

patient care and safety.” The report is based on a survey of nurses who were asked to

indicate much sleep they usually get, including naps, in the 24 hours prior to a scheduled

shift. If some nurses respond to the survey with inaccurate information because they cannot

remember exactly how much sleep they usually get, we would consider this to be a

A. sampling error.

B. nonresponse error.

C. response error.

D. error of omission.

E. margin of error.

Answer 1

Answer)

When the sampling units provide false information, we consider it as a response error

Non response error means, when the sampling units are not interviewed

Margin of error is the amount of random sampling error

Error of omission occurs when action is not taken

Clearly here as the error is due to false information

So answer here is response error
