A group of women suffering from various types of fears is given a therapeutic course to learn how to handle their fear. Before the beginning of the course they were asked to answer a questionnaire to measure their fear score. At the end of the course the women answer the questionnaire again as a follow up measure. The fear scores are used to produce the following: Pair 1(before - follow up) Mean Standard deviation df 2.520 4.417 2.853 24
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
