  Key Concepts: 
  Degree of screening effectiveness is a Quality Management (QM) term used to measure the effectiveness of a screening process. It is calculated by dividing the number of defects detected by the total number of defects present in a sample. The higher the degree of screening effectiveness, the more effective the screening process is.
  
  How to use it: 
  The degree of screening effectiveness can be used to measure the effectiveness of a screening process. It is calculated by dividing the number of defects detected by the total number of defects present in a sample. This calculation can be used to compare different screening processes and determine which one is more effective.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When calculating the degree of screening effectiveness, it is important to ensure that all defects are accounted for in the sample. If any defects are missed, then the calculation will not be accurate. Additionally, it is important to consider other factors such as cost and time when comparing different screening processes.
  
  Related Information: 
  The degree of screening effectiveness is related to other Quality Management terms such as defect rate and defect density. Defect rate measures the number of defects per unit of product, while defect density measures the number of defects per unit area or volume. Both terms can be used to measure the quality of a product or process.
