The document discusses the Shewhart Control Chart for individual measurements, particularly in scenarios where the sample size is one. It covers methods for assessing normality, including histograms and Normal Probability Plots (NOPP), and explains the Central Limit Theorem, which states that sample averages will tend toward normality with larger sample sizes. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.

Writing The Shewhart Control Chart for Individual Measurements There are many situations in which the sample size used for process monitoring is n=1; that is the sample consists of an individual unit. Some examples of these situations are: The production rate is very slow Automated inspection and measurement technology is used, and every unit manufactured is analyzed so there is no basis for rational sub- grouping Example Average Run Length forx- charts I = Expected number of individual units sampled Assessing Normality Histogram IQR/s Ratio NOPP Histogram Visual Examination of the distribution of sample data Mound (bell) shaped Symmetric around the mean The Normal Probability Plot NOPP A plot of sample observations xi vs. their expected values E(xi); given xi is normally distributed. If points approximate a straight line, it is
reasonable to assume normality.
Where E(xi) = s[Z(A)] A= (i-0.375)/(n+0.25) i = order of observation s = sample std deviation Z(A) = the z value corresponds to the lower tail area of A.

If the population from which samples are
taken is not normal, the distribution of sample averages will tend toward normality provided that the sample size, n, is at least 4. This tendency gets better and better as the sample size gets larger. The standardized normal can be used for the distribution averages with the modification. Central Limit Theorem
