When to you use a z scores or t scores?
If the distribution is Gaussian (or Normal) use z-scores. If it is Student's t, then use t-scores.
Is the Z-test the same as Z-scores?
No, the Z-test is not the same as a Z-score. The Z-test is where you take the Z-score and compare it to a critical value to determine if the null hypothesis will be rejected or fail to be rejected.
How do you find normal distribution of z-scores?
z-scores are distributed according to the standard normal distribution. That is, with the parameters: mean 0 and variance 1.
Do z-scores have a units of measure?
No, they do not. They are pure numbers.
Uses of t-score and z-score in the classroom?
Z scores are used for standardized testing done by most school districts. It is the most common way of standardizing data. IQ scores can be standardized using z scores. The mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 15. You use the t score when the sample is small, <30 often. Many behavior ratings use t scores.
