Accuracy
If a measurement result is judged to be close to the true value.
, Calibration
Marking a scale on a measuring instrument.
This involves establishing the relationship between indications of a measuring instrument and
standard or reference quantity values, which must be applied.
For example, placing a thermometer in melting ice to see whether it reads 0 °C, in order to check if
this has been done correctly.
Data
Information, either qualitative or quantitative, that has been collected.
Measurement error
The difference between a measured value and the true value.
Anomalies
These are values in a set of results which are judged not to be part of the variation caused by random
uncertainty.
Random error
These cause readings to be spread about the true value, due to results varying in an unpredictable
way from one measurement to the next.
They are present when any measurement is made, and cannot be corrected. Their effect can be
reduced by making more measurements and calculating a new mean.
Systematic errors
These cause readings to differ from the true value by a consistent amount each time a measurement
is made.
Sources can include the environment, methods of observation or instruments used.
They cannot be dealt with by simple repeats. If one is suspected, the data collection should be
repeated using a different technique or a different set of equipment, and the results compared.
Zero error
Any indication that a measuring system gives a false reading when the true value of a measured
quantity is zero, eg the needle on an ammeter failing to return to zero when no current flows. May
result in a systematic uncertainty.
Evidence
Data which has been shown to be valid.
Fair test
A fair test is one in which only the independent variable has been allowed to affect the dependent
variable.
