Probability Distributions
  1. standard deviation has a close relationship with the normal distribution or bell-shaped curve
    1. Aka sample distributions & distibution patterns
      1. distribution of all possible values that can be taken by that statistic.
      2. formed by calculating that statistic for each of a large number of samples of the same size that are drawn randomly from the population
        1. Normal distribution curve aka standard normal distribution
          1. continuous and can display any value from a dataset; it is a smooth, bell-shaped curve that is symmetric about the mean of the distribution.
            1. symbol for the sample mean is .
            2. defined by a formula in which there are only two sample variables
              1. mean and standard deviation (SD).
            3. NORMAL DIS = PROB DIS so the area under the curve is equal to 1
              1. calculating probabilities using curve
