Lab 1 Flashcards
Constant error
Measure of how far away each performance was from target and includes direction
What does CE for single trial provide
Measure of accuracy and bias
When CE is averaged between trials what happens
Cancellation effects
May incorrectly quantify accuracy
Absolute error
Measure of how far away each performance was from the trial and is always positive (does not include direction)
What does AE provide
Average accuracy
Variable error
Calculated over series of trials
Takes the standard deviation of trials and represents spread of scores around the mean
What does VE measure
Consistency/variability for overall performance
Total error (RMSE)
Calculated over series of trials and provides measure of overall error
