Are the data consistent with a nominal standard deviation ENGINEERING STATISTICS HANDBOOK hW tools raids lỉEÂtCH BACK Nixf 7. Product and Process Comparisons . Comparisons based on data from one process . Are the data consistent with a nominal standard deviation The testing of H0 for a single population mean Given a random sample of measurements Y1 . Yn there are three types of questions regarding the true standard deviation of the population that can be addressed with the sample data. They are 1. Does the true standard deviation agree with a nominal value 2. Is the true standard deviation of the population less than or equal to a nominal value 3. Is the true stanard deviation of the population at least as large as a nominal value Corresponding null hypotheses The corresponding null hypotheses that test the true standard deviation Ơ against the nominal value ơg are 1 H0 Ơ cr0 2.

Critical values can be found in the chi-square table in Chapter 1. Warning Because the chi-square distribution is a non-negative asymmetrical distribution care must be taken in looking up critical values from tables. For two-sided tests critical values are required for both tails of the distribution. Example A supplier of 100 silicon wafers claims that his fabrication process can produce
