Abstract
Several methods have been proposed for constructing confidence interva ls on measures of variability in a classical repeatability and reprodu cibility study. These methods are compared using computer simulation t o determine if the intervals maintain the stated level of confidence a nd to compare the average interval lengths. Recommendations are provid ed for selecting an appropriate method and for selecting the number of operators and samples to use in a study.
