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 tw…
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 o…
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 compar…

An investigator conducted a study to find the relationship between the number of decayed, missing, or filled teeth (DMFT) and sugar consumption. The investigator produced an estimate for the correlation coefficient and provided the following statement: “The correlation between DMFT and sugar consumption is 0.7. State why you are or you are not confident about this investigator’s conclusion. In other words, explain if something is missing from this investigator’s analysis, or if all you need is provided.
