6.2 Constant errors.
meter | 6.20 We shall use the following notations
: | S, — the standard deviation of the total error within a single model (the constant error excluded),
. S, — the standard deviation of the random error within a single model,
S2, — S*, — S?, = an estimation of the systematic error (the constant error excluded),

6.21 The constant errors were calculated twice, as the mean M (Tables 1: I—III) and as the constant term
of the regression function (5.4). These two calculations were identical. The standard deviation S, of the
. residuals around the regression function was calculated at the regression analysis. The expression S5:n is
an estimate of the dispersion of the constant error. The following tests were made.

differ significantly from zero. The hypothesis was tested with u — n , where s = S,, or s = Sa (only
for X, Y and Z) and may be rejected as false at the significanse level of L % if u = uy (u; = 1.96;
uj = 2.58; Up; = 3.89).
The results were given in the following table.
