random error


A nonreproducible error that is generally imputable to the physics of the measurement. For example, the statistical errors in nuclear measurements are random errors.

random error


Random errors are errors that affect the precision of a set of measurements. Random error scatters measurements above and below the mean, with small random errors being more likely than large ones.

random error


The errors that are unpredictable in an estimate. These errors tend to cancel out in a large sample, as opposed to systematic errors that keep adding up because they all go in the same direction.

random error


The natural variation of each of the components of an analysis process, which causes measured values to deviate from each other to some degree. Repetitive measurements which consist of only random errors (no bias errors) will form a normal (Gaussian or bell-shaped) distribution around the true value.

random error


is a type of error that is governed by chance. The smaller the random error in a study the more reliable are the results of the study. Random error occurs in every epidemiological study due to natural or biological variation. Random error is assessed during the statistical analysis of the data collected in a study.
