Effect of defect rate on inspection accuracy.

80 inspectors inspected materials containing defects at 4 different rates. The inspection task employed had been shown in a series of previous studies to be representative of a variety of visual inspection tasks. Performance measures were obtained and analyzed to determine the relationship between d...

      ab: 80 inspectors inspected materials containing defects at 4 different rates. The inspection task employed had been shown in a series of previous studies to be representative of a variety of visual inspection tasks. Performance measures were obtained and analyzed to determine the relationship between defect rate and inspection accuracy. Findings indicated that inspection accuracy decreases with reductions in defect rate. The percentage of true defects detected significantly decreased and the percentage of false reports significantly increased.
