Marquis De Laplace and Karl Friedrich
Gauss derived the normal probability curve
independently, so the curve is also known
as Gaussian curve in the honour of Gauss.
• NPC is The frequency polygon of any normal distribution
• The bell shaped figure & a graph representing a
distribution of scores is called the Normal Probability
Curve or simply The Normal curve.
• Smooth bell shaped
curve
• Asymptotic:
approaching the X-
axis but never
touches it.
• Symmetric: made up
of exactly similar
parts facing each
other.
• Zero Skewness
• Kurtosis=0.263
• All the three central tendencies are equal
(mean=median=mode) or concentrate on
one point.
• Represented by 0 along The baseline.
• It is an Unimodal curve.
• The Normal Curve ranges from -3σ to +
3σ or 6σ.
• The Mean of the normal distribution is
zero. S.D is equal to One.
• It covers total 10,000 cases.
The first & The third Quartile(Q1&Q3) are at
equal distance from Q2 or median.

• Converting raw score into comparable
standard normalized scores.
• Comparing the achievement in different
subjects.
• To determine the percentage of cases in a
normal distribution within given limits.
• To determine The relative difficulty value of
The test items.
Given a normal distribution, N=800,
Mean=80 & SD=16.
To find The standard score for The raw
score 40 for The given distribution.
Z=X-Mσ
Z=Value of z scores
X = Value of raw scores
M= Mean of scores
σ = S.D

• A) To find the percentage of cases
below a given score point.
• B) To find the percentage of cases
above a given score point.
• C) To find the percentage of cases
lying between two given score points.
• Z=?
