Probability: Normal Distribution: Example 1: IQ Scores (DTube)

in #mathematics8 years ago (edited)


In this video I go over an example on normal distributions and this time look at the very well known application that follows a normal distribution probability density function, the Intelligence Quotient (IQ) scores. IQ tests have been widely used for about a century now and they, like many phenomena, are normally distributed. In the example I show that about 2/3rd of people (or 68%) have an IQ between 85 and 115 while less than 0.4% have an IQ higher than 140.

I also go over a brief history of the IQ tests as well its uses and drawbacks. IQ tests focus mainly on cognitive abilities such as memory, attention, speed, and pattern recognition. This is a very useful video if you are interested in learning more about the popular IQ testing concept so make sure to watch this video!

I don't always do an example on IQ scores but when I do I usually go over a brief history lesson on IQ testing as well ;)
