Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Response-set biases are enduring characteristics of respondents that can interfere with accurate measures. Sources of measurement error include situational contaminants, response-set biases, item sampling, and transitory personal factors. Nonresponse bias, attrition bias and selection bias are not examples of sources of measurement error.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
