2. 2 Chapter 3: Attribute Measurement Systems Analysis (Optional) 3.1 Introduction to Attribute Measurement Systems Analysis 3.2 Conducting an Attribute MSA

3. Objectives Introduce the basic concepts of an attribute measurement systems analysis (MSA). Understand operational definitions for inspection and evaluation. Define attribute MSA terms. 3

4. What Is an MSA? A measurement systems analysis is an evaluation of the efficacy of a measurement system. It is applicable to both continuous and attribute data. An attribute MSA evaluates whether a classification system correctly sorts items. Companies make decisions each day based on classifications; it is necessary to evaluate the efficacy of such classifications. 4

5. Operational Definitions In order for a rater to decide if a product is defective or not, he must have a clear description, or an operational definition, of what constitutes a defect. Such a definition might include the following: photographs physical specimens descriptions specifications. 5

6. Effectiveness The effectiveness of an inspection process is the percentage of time that a rater, or other measurement tool, is correct in its classification of quality is often significantly low before any attempts at improvement are instigated should be at least 95%. Effectiveness = number of correct evaluations number of total opportunities 6

8. 3.01 Multiple Choice Poll Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is his effectiveness? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 8

9. 3.01 Multiple Choice Poll – Correct Answer Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is his effectiveness? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 9

10. False Alarms A false alarm is a non-defective item that is classified as defective. The probability of a false alarm, also known as Type I error or producer’s risk, is given by: P(False Alarm) = number of false alarms number of non-defective items 10

12. 3.02 Multiple Choice Poll Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is the probability of a false alarm? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 12

13. 3.02 Multiple Choice Poll – Correct Answer Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is the probability of a false alarm? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 13

14. Misses A miss is a defective item that is classified as non-defective. The probability of a miss, also known as Type II error or consumer’s risk, is given by: P(Miss) = number of misses number of defective items 14

16. 3.03 Multiple Choice Poll Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is the probability of a miss? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 16

17. 3.03 Multiple Choice Poll – Correct Answer Suppose 100 windshields are inspected, and 10 are defective and 90 are non-defective. If an inspector decides that 6 non-defectives are defective, and 1 defective is non-defective, what is the probability of a miss? a..67 b..067 c..1 d..93 e.None of the above 17

18. Escape Rate An escape rate gives the percentage of time a customer is likely to see a defective item. Escape Rate = P(Miss) × P(Defect) where P(Defect) = number of defects number of items inspected. 18

19. Bias Bias is the tendency of an inspector to classify items either as defective or as non-defective. Bias is defined as P(False Alarm)/P(Miss). Bias =1 implies there is no bias. Bias < 1 implies a bias towards accepting bad items. Bias > 1 implies a bias towards rejecting good items. 19

21. 3.04 Multiple Choice Poll The bias is given by the probability of a false alarm divided by the probability of a miss. In the windshield example, the bias is given by.067/.1 =.67. What is the interpretation of this value? a.There is no bias. b.There is a bias towards accepting bad items. c.There is a bias towards rejecting good items. 21

22. 3.04 Multiple Choice Poll – Correct Answer The bias is given by the probability of a false alarm divided by the probability of a miss. In the windshield example, the bias is given by.067/.1 =.67. What is the interpretation of this value? a.There is no bias. b.There is a bias towards accepting bad items. c.There is a bias towards rejecting good items. 22

23. Rater Agreement Rater agreement is a measure of how well raters agree with each other is not an indication of correctness 23

24. Kappa Statistic The Kappa statistic is used to measure between-rater variability, or how often two or more raters agree in their interpretations is a measure and not a test is given by: kappa = p o – p e 1 – p e where p o is the sum of observed proportions in diagonal cells of the contingency table and p e is the sum of expected proportions in diagonal cells of the contingency table. 24

27. Objectives Examine the requirements for an attribute MSA. Perform an attribute MSA in JMP. 27

28. Sample Size To conduct an attribute MSA, the minimum recommended sample sizes are given as follows: 28 Number of Raters Minimum Number of Parts Number of Evaluations 1403 2303 3+253

29. Attribute MSA Example Suppose three inspectors, Henry, Matt, and Tom, are independently going to classify each of 30 parts as defective or non-defective in a random order. They will evaluate each part three different times. Of the 30 parts, 13 are defective and 17 are non-defective. The classification will be based on a predetermined operational definition of defective and non-defective. 29
