It is not necessary that all symetric distribution may be normal.

Are all symmetric distribution are normal?

No. The binomial distribution (discrete) or uniform distribution (discrete or continuous) are symmetrical but they are not normal. There are others.


Are all unimodal distributions normal?

No. Normal distribution is a special case of distribution.


Why does a researcher want to go from a normal distribution to a standard normal distribution?

A researcher wants to go from a normal distribution to a standard normal distribution because the latter allows him/her to make the correspondence between the area and the probability. Though events in the real world rarely follow a standard normal distribution, z-scores are convenient calculations of area that can be used with any/all normal distributions. Meaning: once a researcher has translated raw data into a standard normal distribution (z-score), he/she can then find its associated probability.


What is the formula to determine the standard deviation of the resulting normal distribution when adding two normal distributions with different means and standard deviations?

s= bracket n over sigma i (xi-x-)^2 all over n-1 closed bracket ^ 1/2


How is it possible to convert normal distributions to the standard normal distribution?

use this link http://www.ltcconline.net/greenl/Courses/201/probdist/zScore.htm Say you start with 1000 observations from a standard normal distribution. Then the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1, ignoring sample error. If you multiply every observation by Beta and add Alpha, then the new results will have a mean of Alpha and a standard deviation of Beta. Or, do the reverse. Start with a normal distribution with mean Alpha and standard deviation Beta. Subtract Alpha from all observations and divide by Beta and you wind up with the standard normal distribution.
