Abstract
Studies have shown that inspection is not error-free and is systematically influenced by such factors as time available, the payoffs, complexity of the task, the decision goal, defect rate, and so on. This study shows how models of decision-making can be used to obtain better designs of sampling plans in the presence of human inspection error. This study also outlines a methodology to develop sampling plans under different levels of degraded human performance. Results revealed that sampling plans are sensitive to decision goals and the level of degradation.
