Residual standard error ($s=\sqrt{\mathrm{RSS}/(n-p)}$)

In a full-rank normal linear model with $n$ observations and $p$ mean coefficients, the residual standard error estimates the common error standard deviation. Its square is the unbiased estimator $\mathrm{RSS}/(n-p)$; the square root itself is not generally unbiased. It measures unexplained response variation, whereas a regression coefficient's standard error measures uncertainty in that coefficient.
