What happens to the distribution of the t-score as the sample size increases?
It approaches a normal distribution.
Why is t score equal to z score in a normal distribution?
Because as the sample size increases the Student's t-distribution approaches the standard normal.
What is the probability of finding a T value greater than t.845 given that sample size is 95?
There is not enough information in the question to determine if the t-distribution is the appropriate model to use. If it is, then, with, a sample size of 95 the z-score for the Gaussian distribution is a suitable approximation. The probability is 0.199, approx.
What is the difference between a z score and t score?
A z-score measures how many standard deviations an individual data point is from the mean of a population, assuming the population standard deviation is known and the sample size is large (typically n > 30). In contrast, a t-score is used when the sample size is small (n ≤ 30) or when the population standard deviation is unknown, relying on the sample's standard deviation instead. The t-distribution, which the t-score utilizes, is wider and has heavier tails than the normal distribution, reflecting more uncertainty in smaller samples. As sample sizes increase, the t-distribution approaches the normal distribution, making z-scores more applicable.
How does sample size affect t score?
The estimated standard deviation goes down as the sample size increases. Also, the degrees of freedom increase and, as they increase, the t-distribution gets closer to the Normal distribution.
How do you use the z-score to determine a normal curve?
If the Z-Score corresponds to the standard deviation, then the distribution is "normal", or Gaussian.
How do you find a z-score?
Z Score is (x-mu)/sigma. The Z-Score allows you to go to a standard normal distribution chart and to determine probabilities or numerical values.
What is a fundamental difference between the t statistic and a z score?
The fundamental difference between the t statistic and a z score lies in the sample size and the underlying population variance. The t statistic is used when the sample size is small (typically n < 30) and the population variance is unknown, making it more appropriate for estimating the mean of a normally distributed population. In contrast, the z score is used when the sample size is large or when the population variance is known, as it assumes a normal distribution of the sample mean. Consequently, the t distribution is wider and has heavier tails than the z distribution, reflecting greater uncertainty in smaller samples.
How do you calculate Z and T scores?
z=(x-mean)/(standard deviation of population distribution/square root of sample size) T-score is for when you don't have pop. standard deviation and must use sample s.d. as a substitute. t=(x-mean)/(standard deviation of sampling distribution/square root of sample size)
In a distribution with a standard deviation of eight an individual score of 42 corresponds to a Z score of -0.5. What is the mean of this distribution?
The mean is 46.

Does percentiles of a raw score differ from the meanof the raw score distribution?
Yes.
