Bias in data

Bias in data

Bias in data can distort all results gained from statistical investigation. 

Bias in data can result from:

  • survey questions that are constructed with a particular slant
  • choosing a known group with a particular background to respond to surveys
  • reporting data in misleading categorical groupings
  • non-random selections when sampling
  • systematic measurement errors.
