Is the mean of a standard normal distribution is always equal to 1?

No, the mean of a standard normal distribution is not equal to 1; it is always equal to 0. A standard normal distribution is characterized by a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. This distribution is used as a reference for other normal distributions, which can have different means and standard deviations.


How does standard normal distribution differ from normal distribution?

The standard normal distribution has a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.


Do some normal probability distributions have different means and different standard deviations?

Yes. Normal (or Gaussian) distribution are parametric distributions and they are defined by two parameters: the mean and the variance (square of standard deviation). Each pair of these parameters gives rise to a different normal distribution. However, they can all be "re-parametrised" to the standard normal distribution using z-transformations. The standard normal distribution has mean 0 and variance 1.


Which normal distribution is also the standard normal curve?

The normal distribution would be a standard normal distribution if it had a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1.


What is the standard deviation of a standard normal distribution?

The standard deviation in a standard normal distribution is 1.


What is the difference between a general normal curve and a standard normal curve?

A standard normal distribution has a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1. A normal distribution can have any real number as a mean and the standard deviation must be greater than zero.


What is the difference of a normal distribution and a stardard normal distribution?

The standard normal distribution is a special case of the normal distribution. The standard normal has mean 0 and variance 1.

What is the difference between standard normal distribution table and the t distribution table?

standard normal is for a lot of data, a t distribution is more appropriate for smaller samples, extrapolating to a larger set.
