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.
