What does probalility distribution mean?
In parametric statistical analysis we always have some probability distributions such as Normal, Binomial, Poisson uniform etc.In statistics we always work with data. So Probability distribution means "from which distribution the data are?
For the normal distribution does it always require a continuity correction?
Use the continuity correction when using the normal distribution to approximate a binomial distribution to take into account the binomial is a discrete distribution and the normal distribution is continuous.
What the ethical issues in probability distribution?
Probability distribution is when all the possible outcomes of a random variation are gathered together and the probability of each outcome is figured out. There are several ethical issues with this one being that it is not always accurate information that is gathered.
What is the probability distribution that can be describe by just one parameter?
There are probably many probability distributions that have just one parameter. The most important one for statistical analysis is probably the Student t distribution.This probability distribution is fully described by a single parameter which is often called "degrees of freedom". The parameter describes the scale of the distribution, and not the location, since the Student t distribution is always centered at zero (unlike the normal distribution, which has a scale parameter, the variance, and a location parameter, the mean).Another example of a distribution that is described with a single parameter is the exponential distribution. Unlike the Student t distribution, it is a distribution that takes only positive values.
What percentage of observations of a normal distribution is reprented by the mean plus or minus 1.96 standard deviations?
The probability of the mean plus or minus 1.96 standard deviations is 0. The probability that a continuous distribution takes any particular value is always zero. The probability between the mean plus or minus 1.96 standard deviations is 0.95
