It is generally assumed that the defective factors of a
population have the same a-priori probability" of being defective'.
However, with some knowledge of the population, we can relax on
this assumption and assume the population may consist of factors
with unequal a-priori probabilities of being defective. Stepwise
screening is dev~loped to detect these factors with mini-.
mum expected number of runs assuming that there are no errors in.
the observations. Co-mparison is done with an·equivalent·two- ;.
stage group screening experiment.
