question 35

Multiple Choice

TABLE 12-10
One criterion used to evaluate employees in the assembly section of a large factory is the number of defective pieces per 1,000 parts produced.

Since the job is repetitious, after the initial training period any improvement due to a learning effect might be offset by a loss of motivation. A defect rate is calculated for each worker in a yearly evaluation. The results for 100 workers are given in the table below.
