> Assuming a normal distribution, the standard deviation of each parameter considered in isolation relates to a confidence level of about 68 %. However, the confidence level is reduced if more than one parameter is considered at the same time. Thus, the standard deviation of an isolated considered x-component relates to confidence level of about 68 %, and the standard deviation of an isolated considered y-component relates to confidence level of about 68 % and so on. However, the question is how large is the conditional probability that both, x [i]and[/i] y, lie within a confidence region. Obviously, there are four cases (with different probabilities of occurrence)

> Let us assume that a single parameter (x or y) lies within the 68 % confidence interval, then in three out of four cases there is a confidence region in which both parameters do not lie simultaneously - the conditional confidence level must be less than 68 %.
