In the fields of science , engineering , industry and statistics , the accuracy [ 1 ] of a measurement system is the degree of closeness of measurements of a quantity to that quantity's actual (true) value . The precision [ 1 ] of a measurement system, also called reproducibility or repeatability , is the degree to which repeated measurements under unchanged conditions show the same results . [ 2 ] Although the two words reproducibility and repeatability can be synonymous in colloquial use, they are deliberately contrasted in the context of the scientific method . Accuracy indicates proximity of measurement results to the true value, precision to the repeatability or reproducibility of the measurement A measurement system can be accurate but not precise, precise but not accurate, neither, or both. For example, if an experiment contains a systematic error , then increasing the sample size generally increases precision but does not improve accuracy.
