Definitions:

Normal Distribution

A statistical distribution that is symmetrically shaped around its mean, depicting how probabilities are spread over different events or values.

Bell-shaped Distribution

A graphical representation of data where the peak of the curve represents the most common occurrence, tapering off symmetrically on both sides, typical of a normal distribution.

Normal Curve

Also known as the bell curve, it is a graphical representation of a normal distribution of data where most observations cluster around the central peak and taper off symmetrically towards either end.

Extreme Scores

Values or outcomes in statistical data that are significantly higher or lower than the majority of the data set, often influencing the overall analysis and interpretations.
