What does a negative z-score mean?

z-score of a value=(that value minus the mean)/(standard deviation). So if a value has a negative z-score, then it is below the mean.


How do you interpret a negative z- score?

A negative z-score indicates that the observed value (or statistic) was below the mean. In non-directional tests, a negative z-score is just as likely as a positive one.


Is it true any score with value less than the population mean will have a negative z-score?

Yes. If a score is below the mean, the z score will be negative.


Does a negative z score yield a negative probability value?

no, z score can be negative but a probability is a always positive between 0 and 1.


How do you find probabilty of negative z score?

Let z be positive so that -z is the negative z score for which you want the probability. Pr(Z < -z) = Pr(Z > z) = 1 - Pr(Z < z).


Which z score corresponds to a higher value within a distribution of values -1.4 or 1.00?

A z-score indicates how many standard deviations a value is from the mean of a distribution. A z-score of 1.00 is positive, meaning it is above the mean, while a z-score of -1.4 is negative, indicating it is below the mean. Therefore, a z-score of 1.00 corresponds to a higher value within the distribution compared to a z-score of -1.4.


How do you change a negative z score to a decimal?

In the same way that you would convert a positive z-score. Only leave a negative sign in front of it.


What is measured by the sign of a z-score?

The sign of the z score is negative if the observation was below the mean and positive if it was greater.


Can a negative z score be greater than a positive z score?

Assume the z-score is relative to zero score. In simple terms, assume that we have 0 < z < z0, where z0 is the arbitrary value. Then, a negative z-score can be greater than a positive z-score (yes). How? Determine the probability of P(-2 < z < 0) and P(0 < z < 1). Then, by checking the z-value table, you should get: P(-2 < z < 0) ≈ 0.47725 P(0 < z < 1) ≈ 0.341345


What does the z score of - 1.3 mean?

A z score of -1.3 means that the score is located at the negative 1.3 sigma level with respect to the mean.


What is a z- score considered to be if it is less than negative two or greater than two?

The z score is -2 or +2!


How do you know if a z score is positive or negative?

A negative Z-Score corresponds to a negative standard deviation, i.e. an observation that is less than the mean, when the standard deviation is normalized so that the standard deviation is zero when the mean is zero.
