9、the methods have been used extensively in the trade for thispurpose,even though current estimates of between-laboratoryprecision are quite large in some cases.4.2.1 If there are differences of practical significance be-tween reported test results for two laboratories(or more),comparative test should
10、 be performed to determine if there is astatistical bias between them,using competent statistical assis-tance.As a minimum,the test samples should be used that areas homogeneous as possible,that are drawn from the materialfrom which the disparate test results were obtained,and thatare randomly assig
11、ned in equal numbers to each laboratory fortesting.Other materials with established test values may beused for this purpose.The test results from the two laboratoriesshould be compared using a statistical test for unpaired data,ata probability level chosen prior to the testing series.If a bias isfou
12、nd,either its cause must be found and corrected,or futuretest results must be adjusted in consideration of the knownbias.4.3 The method(s)in the standard along with those in TestMethods D2051,D2052,D2053,D2054,D2057,D2058,D2059/D2059M,D2060,and D2061 are a collection of proventest methods.They can b
