ASQ CSSGB Online Questions & Answers

• Question 231:

  In the regression equation y = mx + b, y increases with x in all cases:

  A. If b is positive
  B. If b is negative
  C. If m is positive
  D. If m is negative
  C. If m is positive

• Question 232:

  Excessive conflict within an improvement team:

  A. Promotes equal participation among members
  B. Has a positive effect on creating alternate solutions
  C. Most often results in win-win situations
  D. Has a negative effect on team members and should be avoided
  D. Has a negative effect on team members and should be avoided

• Question 233:

  Compute the Process SigmA. Which DPMO should you use?

  Why?

  A. Check answer in the explanation
  B. Holder
  C. Holder
  D. Holder
  A. Check answer in the explanation

  ---

  Explanation

  Process sigma assuming a 1.5 sigma shift in the mean for the empirical DPMO of 11,200 is 3.1 to 3.2.

  Process sigma assuming a 1.5 sigma shift in the mean for the theoretical DPMO of 48,000 is 3.7 to 3.8.

  Neither DPMO should be used because the process is not stable. A process sigma calculation is not appropriate for this process at this time.

• Question 234:

  Effective team mechanics would typically NOT include which of the following?

  A. The development of an agenda
  B. The support of upper management
  C. The distribution of minutes
  D. The meeting time, frequency and location
  B. The support of upper management

  ---

  Explanation

  The keys to this question are "mechanics" and "not include." A team must have the support of upper management (answer b). However, this is the answer to a question that is not askeD. This question deals with team mechanics, which includes agendas, times, locations, minutes, etC. Answers a, c and d are all necessary team mechanics.

• Question 235:

  The ability to repeat the same measurement obtained with one measurement instrument used several times by one appraiser while measuring the identical characteristic on the same part is known as ____________.

  A. Repeatability
  B. Bias
  C. Linearity
  D. Reproducibility
  A. Repeatability

• Question 236:

  The use of basic graphical and statistical methods for analyzing and controlling the variation of a process, and thus continuously improving the process.

  A. Confidence Interval
  B. Statistical Process Control
  C. Design of Experiments
  D. Control Plan
  B. Statistical Process Control

• Question 237:

  A 23 full factorial design attempts to prevent the effect of lurking variables by:

  A. randomization
  B. replication
  C. interaction
  D. none of the above
  E. all of the above
  A. randomization

• Question 238:

  Is the process stable?

  If not, on what days is it not stable?

  A. Check answer in the explanation
  B. Holder
  C. Holder
  D. Holder
  A. Check answer in the explanation

  ---

  Explanation

  Days 8 and 22 are beyond the upper control limit.

• Question 239:

  At what point can the Control Plan be closed?

  A. Never, a Control Plan is a living document
  B. As soon as the Champion signs off
  C. Within 30 days of the LSS project review team meeting
  D. After the project has been presented at the recognition event
  A. Never, a Control Plan is a living document

• Question 240:
