Key Concepts

Quantiles

Values that partition the distribution into intervals with equal probabilities. In the context of the standard normal curve, quantiles are used to identify critical z-values corresponding to a specified percentage of the area under the curve, such as finding a z-value with 95% of the distribution to its right.

Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF)

A function that provides the probability that a random variable is less than or equal to a specified value. It is fundamental in calculating the proportions of the distribution that lie to the left or right of a given z-value.

Standard Normal Distribution

A probability distribution that is symmetric about its mean, with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. It is used as a reference distribution in statistics for comparing scores and calculating probabilities when data are standardized.

Z-Score

A standardized score indicating how many standard deviations a data point is from the mean. It is used to transform individual data values into a common scale, enabling the comparison of scores from different normal distributions.
