“负偏差”常见的英文表达是 “negative deviation” 。
在工程、质量管控、统计学等不同领域中,它都用来表示实际值低于标准值、理论值或预期值的情况。例如:
In quality control, a negative deviation in product dimensions indicates that the actual size is smaller than the specified size.(在质量控制中,产品尺寸的负偏差表示实际尺寸小于规定尺寸。)
There was a negative deviation in the experimental results compared to the theoretical predictions.(与理论预测相比,实验结果出现了负偏差 。)
