What is sampling error? A.The discrepancy between a sample estimate of a population parameter and the real population parameter B.The discrepancy between the sample mean and the sample standard deviation C.The discrepancy between the observed mean of one group in the sample and the observed mean of another group in the sample D.The discrepancy between two population parameters of interest

Which of the following is a true statement about sampling error? (A) Sampling error can be eliminated only if a survey is both extremely well designed and extremely well conducted. (B) Sampling error reflects natural variation between samples, is always present, and can be described using probability. (C) Sampling error is generally larger when the sample size is larger. (D) Sampling error implies an error, possibly very small, but still an error on the part of the surveyor. (E) Sampling error is higher when bias is present.
