English translation:SEM - standard error of the mean
Explanation:
It's not often I will pit my version against Per Morten B., but here I dare so, not least because he provides a Norwegian answer to an NO-EN question!! :)
But also, I think this is what you are looking for, in fact.

I'm not going to get the client's response to this for another week or so, so I'm grading this now at making allowance for the fact that the Norw. term is non-standard. Thanks, Bill

Asker: Takk for input, Per, skjønt jeg ville satt pris på svar på engelsk..;-) Men nå har jeg funnet ut at det er noe som heter "standardfeil" ifm. deskriptiv statistikk. Kanskje det er det som menes. Men "middels standardfeil" gir ingen treff. Tror det er noe galt her.
