D all the way. Measurement error is all about how close you are to the real deal, not some average or middle point.

Haha, I bet the true value is a unicorn - you can't measure something that doesn't exist! Gotta be D though.

Definitely D. True value. Anything else would just be a statistical measure, not the actual value we're trying to determine.

I think the correct answer is D. True value. Measurement error is the deviation from the actual or true value being measured.

Yeah, I think the key is that measurement error is about how close the observed value is to the true value.

I don't think so, standard deviation is a measure of dispersion, not the true value.

But what about standard deviation? Could that also be a factor in measurement error?

I agree with Fletcher, measurement error is when the observed value deviates from the true value.
