In sampling contexts, the standard error is called sampling error. Sampling error gives us some idea of the precision of our statistical estimate. A low sampling error means that we had relatively less variability or range in the sampling distribution.

Brief and Straightforward Guide: What is Statistical Sampling? ... In other words, statistical sampling does not involve measuring the desired variable in every individual of the population being studied; a selection of individuals is used to generalize results. Generally, the larger the sample size, the better the results.
