Attribute Gage R & R Effectiveness

Instructions:
1) The following spreadsheet is used to calculate an Attribute GR&R Effectiveness, in which up to
100 samples can be evaluated, using 2 or 3 operators.
2) In the Data Entry worksheet fill in the appropriate information in the Scoring Report section an
enter the type of Attributes you are evaluating in the Attribute Legend section. YOU MUST EN
THE INFORMATION IN THE ATTRIBUTE LEGEND SECTION OR THE SPREADSH
WILL NOT WORK. The attributes can be either alpha or numeric, e.g. Yes, No; pass, fail;
go, stop; or 1, 2. You must be consistent throughout the form and spell properly.
3) If you or an expert has selected samples to be evaluated and you know what attributes these
samples are, enter this information in the Attribute sample column. This will enable you to det
how well each operator can evaluate a set of samples against a known standard. You do not
need to enter information in this column for the spreadsheet to work although you will
not be able to assess the operators against known standards.
4) You do not have to specify how many operators or the # of samples that you will be evaluating
during the test. Simply enter the data into the spreadsheet under the specific operator.
the attributes must be spelled properly or the spreadsheet will not analyze the data correc
5) To print a copy of the report click on the Print Report icon.
6) To delete the data in the spreadsheet, click on the Delete Data icon.
7) To delete all and begin a new test, click on the Delete All icon

Move around the spread sheet to see the data. When you are finished click the Delete All

The 95% UCL and 95% LCL represent the 95% upper and lower confidence limits on the
binomial distribution. The Calculated Score is the basic computation reported on the report
page for % Appraiser and % Score vs Attribute. The 95% confidence interval represents
the range within which the true Calculated Score lies given the uncertainty associated with
limited sample sizes. As sample size increases (in this case, Total Inspected) the
confidence interval will get smaller and smaller which indicates more reliable estimates of
the true percentages. In the case of the Demo data, the true Calculated score for Operator 1
could be as low as 76.8% given that only 14 samples inspected, even though there was a 100%
Appraiser value calculated. Also, even though Operator 2 had a lower score, Operators 1 and 3
cannot be distinguished from Operator 2 because the calculated score of #2 (78.6%) lies within
the confidence limits for Operators 1 and 3.

With a worksheet limitation of 100 samples, at best a lower 95% limit of 96.4% can be calculat
Thus, we would have to say that an inspector could be as bad as 96% efficient, even though he/s
