The word

Sorry is this even right.? Who made that comment about debate concerning the word repeatability? There are a substantial number of words in the English language that formed from a combination of a root word and the suffix '-able' (from whence comes the suffix '-ability'). I am removing that comment until it has better substantiation as to the dispute mentioned. So repeatability is a term associated with the machining process. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.234.90.214 (talk • contribs).

What is the difference between Reproducibility and Repeatability?

Currently these definitions can be seen on Wikipedia and to me (as only half-knowledgeable on this subject) they seem very much alike. Reproducibility is the closeness of the agreement between the results of measurements of the same measurand carried out with same methodology described in the corresponding scientific evidence. Repeatability is the closeness of the agreement between the results of successive measurements of the same measurand carried out under the same conditions of measurement.

On the Reproducibility page later is specified "Reproducibility is one component of the precision of a measurement or test method. The other component is repeatability which is the degree of agreement of tests or measurements on replicate specimens by the same observer in the same laboratory. Both repeatability and reproducibility are usually reported as a standard deviation. A reproducibility limit is the value below which the difference between two test results obtained under reproducibility conditions may be expected to occur with a probability of approximately 0.95 (95%).[7]"

On the Repeatability page later is specified "An attribute agreement analysis is designed to simultaneously evaluate the impact of repeatability and reproducibility on accuracy. It allows the analyst to examine the responses from multiple reviewers as they look at several scenarios multiple times. It produces statistics that evaluate the ability of the appraisers to agree with themselves (repeatability), with each other (reproducibility), and with a known master or correct value (overall accuracy) for each characteristic – over and over again.[7] --Bernburgerin (talk) 09:33, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
