Discrete and continuous precision functions characteristic of the method. The upper panel displays the discrete between-round repeatability {<
>,<s
r
>} (thinnest line), between-participant precision {<>,<sL>}, and reproducibility {<>,<s
R
>} (thickest line) functions. The lower panel displays the same precisions as continuous functions, in the form of 10th-order polynomials. In both panels, the open circles denote the values that define the discrete functions.
