Answer 1

Answer:

8)

A. It is a Response Error.

Response error (Standard Definition): This refers to a type of error caused by respondents intentionally or accidentally providing inaccurate responses. This occurs when concepts, questions or instructions are not clearly understood by the respondent; when there are high levels of respondent burden and memory recall required; and because some questions can result in a tendency to answer in a socially desirable way (giving a response which they feel is more acceptable rather than being an accurate response).

B. Tabulation Error

Standard Definition: These errors occur at the tabulation stage due to various reasons, e.g., inadequate scrutiny of data, errors in processing the data, errors in publishing the tabulated results, graphs etc

As the researcher is not tabulating the data honestly it is a Tabulation error.

9)

The advantage of pareto graph is that data is sorted into order by category, size, largest to smallest
