The Standard Normal DistributionAll Normal distributions can be transformed into one, STANDARD Normal distribution by measuring in units of size from the mean σ µ as center.

Page 5: 12.913.714.114.214.5 14.614.715.115.215.3 15.515.6 15.8 16.0 16.2 16.316.4 16.516.6 16.817.0 17.217.4 17.918.4 Do NOT glue (we’ll do that later)— simply.

Definition:

The standard Normal distribution is the Normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.

If a variable x has any Normal distribution N(µ,σ) with mean µ and standard deviation , then the σstandardized variable

has the standard Normal distribution, N(0,1).

Assessing Normality(I am going to say something like this, but you

don’t need to copy this down )

The Normal distributions provide good models for some distributions of real data. Many

statistical inference procedures are based on the assumption that the population is approximately Normally distributed. Consequently, we need a

strategy for assessing Normality.

Page 13: 12.913.714.114.214.5 14.614.715.115.215.3 15.515.6 15.8 16.0 16.2 16.316.4 16.516.6 16.817.0 17.217.4 17.918.4 Do NOT glue (we’ll do that later)— simply.

Plot the data! Plot the data! PLOT THE DATA!• Make a dotplot, stemplot, or histogram and see if

the graph is approximately symmetric and bell-shaped.

Check whether the data follow the 68-95-99.7 rule. • Count how many observations fall within one, two,

and three standard deviations of the mean and check to see if the percents are close to the 68%, 95%, and 99.7% targets for a Normal distribution.

The Normal Probability Plot

Plots each observation against its z-score

If the points on a NPP lie close to a straight line, the plot indicates that the data are approx Normal.

Systematic deviations from a straight line indicate a non-Normal distribution.

Outliers appear as points that are far away from the overall pattern of the plot.
