Calculation of Type A Data from Control Data for Measurement Uncertainty

Session five of the Foundational Statistics for Forensic Toxicology series will incorporate concepts from earlier sessions and focus on the practical application of control data in estimating Measurement Uncertainty (MU). Rather than a discussion about how to calculate the MU, this session provides practical examples to demonstrate the key elements of the statistical process. Participants will learn how to incorporate control data into MU estimation by leveraging statistical techniques aimed at quantifying the uncertainty associated with measurement processes.

This webinar was hosted by the NIJ Forensic Technology Center of Excellence on July 11, 2024. It is one of six webinars in the Foundational Statistics for Forensic Toxicology series.
