Abstract
In some situations measurement results are stated without correcting f or known systematic effects. It is shown here that this can be done as long as the uncertainty associated with the uncorrected result is pro perly evaluated. Since this procedure produces an enlarged uncertainty , it is strongly advised that corrected results always be stated.
