To find a negative value such as -0.83, one could use a cumulative table for negative z-values [3] which yield a probability of 0.20327. But since the normal distribution curve is symmetrical, probabilities for only positive values of Z are typically given.
Comparison of the various grading methods in a normal distribution, including: standard deviations, cumulative percentages, percentile equivalents, z-scores, T-scores. In statistics, the standard score is the number of standard deviations by which the value of a raw score (i.e., an observed value or data point) is above or below the mean value of what is being observed or measured.
Because of the central limit theorem, many test statistics are approximately normally distributed for large samples.Therefore, many statistical tests can be conveniently performed as approximate Z-tests if the sample size is large or the population variance is known.
The log-normal distribution, describing variables which can be modelled as the product of many small independent positive variables. The Lomax distribution; The Mittag-Leffler distribution; The Nakagami distribution; The Pareto distribution, or "power law" distribution, used in the analysis of financial data and critical behavior.
Positive data: Data that enable the investigator to reject a null hypothesis. Alternative hypothesis (H 1) Suppose the data can be realized from an N(0,1) distribution. For example, with a chosen significance level α = 0.05, from the Z-table, a one-tailed critical value of approximately 1.645 can be obtained.

The positive predictive value (PPV), or precision, is defined as = + = where a "true positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a positive result under the gold standard, and a "false positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a negative result under the gold standard.
