Standard Error

Updated on August 29, 2023

What is a standard error?

The standard error can be defined as an approximate standard deviation of the sample population. It is a statistical term that is used to measure the accuracy of the sample in presenting the whole population by employing standard deviation.

When a deviation is observed between the actual mean and the sample mean, it is termed as the standard error of the mean.
