  1. The Difference between the real value and the expected value creates Error of Origin. Whereas wrong statistical method used in the research or we calculated in a wrong way this is called mistake in stats.
  2. Errors are not willingly done but mistakes are done knowingly
  3. Error occurs at the stage of Collecting data, Analyzing it or at the time of Interpretation. Whereas Mistakes can be done at any stage of Research.
  4. Predicting Error is easy but it is difficult while making mistake in research.
  5. One cannot stop Errors but we can stop making mistakes in research.
