What does attribute sampling determine in quality control?

  1. The specific numeric value of a measurement

  2. The degree of variation from the norm

  3. Whether a result conforms or does not conform

  4. The average outcome of a process

The correct answer is: Whether a result conforms or does not conform

Attribute sampling in quality control determines whether a result conforms or does not conform to a specific requirement or standard. This type of sampling is used when the characteristic being measured is qualitative in nature, such as the presence or absence of a particular attribute. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Option A is incorrect because attribute sampling does not focus on determining the specific numeric value of a measurement, but rather on whether the result meets a specific criteria. Option B is incorrect because it refers to the degree of variation from the norm, which is more related to variable sampling rather than attribute sampling. Option D is incorrect because attribute sampling does not aim to determine the average outcome of a process, but rather to check if individual results conform to set requirements.
