Nominal property value coverage probability
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-007994
The probability that the actual value of a nominal property of an examinand, a property with categories rather than a numerical scale such as a blood group, lies within a stated set of candidate values. It expresses the confidence that a reported result of a qualitative examination is right. Its quantitative counterpart is the coverage probability of an interval placed around a measured value.
