Note: The chart above shows the margin of error, represented by the lower (|-)and upper (-|) bounds of the 90-percent confidence interval. The estimate itself is represented by the center of the confidence interval (•). The confidence interval gives a range of values likely to include the population true value. The smaller the confidence interval the more precise the estimate of the characteristic of interest.
