Using a Youden Plot

  • Controls are run and plotted.
  • Plots that lie near the 45-degree reference line and within the one and two standard deviation squares show acceptable results.
  • Points that lie near the 45-degree reference lines but outside the 2SD square indicate a systematic error.
  • Points that lie far from either 45-degree reference line indicate a random error.
