Ch. 6
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Statistical Quality Control (SQC) | The general category of statistical tools ued to evaluate organizational quality. |
| Descriptive Statistics | Statistics used to described quality characteristics and relationships. |
| Statistical Process Control (SPC) | A statistical tool that involves inspecting a random sample of the output from a process and deciding whether the process is producing products with characteristics that fall within a predetermined range. |
| Acceptance Sampling | The process of randomly inspecting a sample of goods and deciding whether to accept the entire lot based on the results. |
| Common (Random) Causes of Variation | Random causes that cannot be identified. |
| Assignable Causes of Variation | Causes that can be identified and eliminated. |
| Mean (Average) | A statistic that measures the central tendency of a set of data. |
| Range | The difference between the largest and smallest observations in a set of data. |
| Standard Deviation | A statistic that measures the amount of data dispersion around the mean. |
| Control Chart | A graph that shows whether a sample of data falls within the common or normal range of variation. |
| Out of Control | The situation in which a plot of data falls outside preset control limits. |
| Variable | A product characteristic that can be measured and has a continuum of values (e.g. height, weight, or volume) |
| Attribute | A product characteristic that has a discrete value and can be counted. |
| P-Chart | A control chart that monitors the proportion of defects in a sample. |
| Process Capability | The ability of a production process to meet or exceed preset specifications. |
| Product Specifications | Preset ranges of acceptable quality characteristics. |
| Process Capability Index | An index used to measure process capability. |
| Six Sigma Quality | A high level of quality associated with approximately 3.4 defective parts per million. |
| Sampling Plan | A plan for acceptance sampling that precisely specifies the parameters of the sampling process and the acceptance/rejection criteria. |
| Operating Characteristic Curve (OC Curve) | A graph that shows the probability or chance of accepting a lot given various proportions of defects in the lot. |
| Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) | The small percentage of defects that consumers are willing to accept. |
| Lot tolerance percent defective (LTPD) | The upper limit of the percentage of defective items consumers are willing to tolerate. |
| Consumer's Risk | The chance of accepting a lot that contains a greater number of defects than the LTPD limit. |
| Producer's Risk | The chance that a lot containing an acceptable quality level will be rejected. |
| Average Outgoing Quality | The expected proportion of defective items that will be passed to the customer under the sampling plan. |
