We propose a method of applying the maximum likelyhood test to the estimation of experimental inaccuracies. This method takes into consideration the fact that only the deviations between measured values and their model-aided estimations can be known. A discussion concerning the possible application of the method and the confidence we place upon it is illustrated by an empirical study of result distribution.
