Tests on adhesives are particularly prone to scatter and it is therefore desirable to apply a rigorous statistical treatment to such test data so that an objective interpretation can be made. A Br

9、10) is available. More detailed information is given in BS2846. 2 Reference This Part makes reference to the following standards publication: BS2846, Guide to statistical interpretation of data. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of this British Standard the following definitions apply. 3.1
10、 arithmetic mean ( ) of a series of n observations of x 1 , x 1 , x 2 , x 3x n , is the sum of all the values divided by their number, i.e. this quantity is also commonly known as the average 3.2 standard deviation and variance the standard deviation (s) is the positive square root of the variance (
11、s 2 ) which is a measure of the dispersion of the test results. For a series of n observations x 1 , x 2 , x 3 , . x nand an arithmetic mean, the variance is given by the following expression: 3.3 coefficient of variation (v) the standard deviation expressed as a percentage of the mean 4 Use of arit
12、hmetic mean and standard deviation The arithmetic mean in most cases gives the statistically best estimate of the true value of the quantity observed, i.e.the value it would have were all random errors eliminated. The scatter of the results is described by the standard deviation. It is assumed that
13、the errors follow Gaussian or normal distribution. 5 Calculations The calculation of means and standard deviations is straightforward but laborious and the use of a desk calculator is recommended. The equation for estimating the standard deviation can be written as: This form is particularly useful
14、when a desk calculator is available. A specimen calculation showing a recommended tabular layout is given inAppendix A. Alternatively, when the number of test results is small (between2 and10) a simplified formula is available which gives an approximate but reasonable estimate of the standard deviat
15、ion. Details of this method are given inAppendix B. 6 Confidence limits for the mean In general, the mean of a set of observations approaches the true value more closely as the number of observations is increased provided that there are no systematic errors. From any finite number of observations, h
16、owever, the true value cannot be determined exactly; thus, not only the mean of a particular set of observations but also the limits which have have a given probability of including the true value should be calculated. For many purposes the95% confidence limits are found convenient. These define a r
17、ange within which the true value will lie on95% of occasions when the calculation is used. 7 Significance of difference between means It is not always immediately obvious whether the difference between the means of two series of observations is significant (i.e.a real one). One test is that if eithe
18、r95% confidence limits of the difference between the means include zero then the means are not significantly different at a5% level of significance. x x v 100s x - =BS5350-E1:1976 2 BSI 07-1999 The confidence limits, L, of the difference between two means are given by the formula: where and are the
19、two means; n 1and n 2are the number of observations in each set; t is read from the table inAppendix C for (n 1+ n 2 1) observations; and s is defined by where S 1and S 2are the two standard deviations. Alternatively a statistic t can be calculated, defined by: and compared with the value of t as de
20、fined above. The difference between the means is significant ift 1 t, and is not significant if t 1u t, at the5% significance level. The method described is only valid if it can be assumed that the two series of observations come from populations with similar standard deviations, i.e.s 1and s 2are e
21、stimates of the same quantity. 8 Estimate of number of observations required If it is desired that the95% confidence interval of a mean shall lie within a predetermined range around the mean, then it is necessary first to determine the variance and then to calculate the number of observations that n
22、eed to be made. The table inAppendix D relates the approximate number of observations required in an isolated series of tests to the observed value of the coefficient of variation and to the required limits expressed as a percentage of the mean. Thus, if it is desired that the95% confidence limits s
23、hall lie within10% of the mean and if the coefficient of variation is20%, it will be necessary to take the mean of about18 observations. The figures inAppendix D, however, constitute a guide only, as variations in and s will occur in successive sets of observations. Hence the values of s and L for a
24、 set of observations based onAppendix D should always be determined to confirm that they do in fact conform to the requirements. Appendix E shows an example of the effect on the statistically derived quantities of increasing the number of observations. For an estimate, , of the mean, the limits, L,
25、are estimated by the formula: where t is a particular value of Students t distribution tabulated for a range of probability levels in standard text books. The values of t for the estimation of95% confidence limits are given in Appendix C. A specimen calculation of L is included in Appendix A. x 1 x

With modern calculators this practice shoul

Appendix B Estimation of standard deviation from small numbers of test results B.1 Modified linear estimate of s The following method allows rapid estimation of the standard deviation from small numbers of test results (10or less)

If the ratio r 10or r 11exceeds the appropriate critical value r, there are grounds grounds for believing the outer value to be a statistical outlier and it may with justification be excluded from the calculation of mean and standard deviation. However, before rejecting a test result, technic
34、al (other than statistical) explanations as to why the result is unacceptable should always be sought. The above test should be used only as a last resort.
