Critical Values of the t* Distribution

How to Use This Table

This table contains upper critical values of the t* distribution that are appropriate for determining whether or not a calibration line is in a state of statistical control from measurements on a check standard at three points in the calibration interval. A test statistic with degrees of freedom is compared with the critical value. If the absolute value of the test statistic exceeds the tabled value, the calibration of the instrument is judged to be out of control.

Upper critical values of t* distribution at significance level 0.05 for testing the output of a linear calibration line at 3 points
