No. The curve in a normal distribution goes on out to plus and minus infinity. You might never see any observations out there, but if you were to make an infinite number of observations, you theoretically would.

Normal curve is the meaning of standard normal distribution?

No, the normal curve is not the meaning of the Normal distribution: it is one way of representing it.


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.


How does the bell curve relates to the empirical rule?

The bell curve, also known as the normal distribution, is a symmetrical probability distribution that follows the empirical rule. The empirical rule states that for approximately 68% of the data, it lies within one standard deviation of the mean, 95% within two standard deviations, and 99.7% within three standard deviations when data follows a normal distribution. This relationship allows us to make predictions about data distribution based on these rules.


What is the mean and standard deviations and the standard normal distribution?

Mean is the average, sum total divided by total number of data entries. Standard deviation is the square root of the sum total of the data values divided by the total number of data values. The standard normal distribution is a distribution that closely resembles a bell curve.


Describe the properties of a normal distribution?

A normal distribution is symmetric and when looked at on a graph, the graph looks like a bell shaped curve. Approximately 95 percent of its values should lie within two standard deviations of the mean. Frequency of the data lies mostly in the middle of the curve.


What does normality mean in health and social care?

All minor deviations occurring with two standard deviations under the Gaussian curve are considered normal. Deviations occurring outside of two standard deviations are considered abnormal.


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 proportion of the total area under the normal curve within plus or minus 2 standard deviations?

95%


If a data point has a corresponding score of -1.5 then it is one and a half standard deviations above the mean value.?

If you are talking about the z-value of a point on the normal curve, then no, it is 1.5 standard deviations BELOW the mean.


What is the proportion of the total area under the normal curve within plus and minus two standard deviations of the mean?

95


What percent of a normal population is within 2 standard deviations of the mean?

In a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the population falls within 2 standard deviations of the mean. This is known as the 95% rule or the empirical rule. The empirical rule states that within one standard deviation of the mean, about 68% of the population falls, and within two standard deviations, about 95% of the population falls.
