How fit are you (in relation to others)?Our percentile function offers objective comparison)
Distribution fittings for all age-groupsPercentiles are a simple, illustrative value to report the score within norm-referenced tests. A performance at the "65th percentile" is the value (or score) below which 65 percent of the other observations may be found. The median corresponds to the 50th perzentile of a group of observations.Calculation of percentiles is a sophisticated task since it needs knowledge of the gaussian distribution in each group as norm-reference. The figure above shows the variety of normal distributions that is needed for one type of ergometry (in this case running on treadmill) with changing age in one gender. Ergonizer Software determines the postion of many results automatically on surface of the applicable distribution curve and reports the related percentile values. Screenshot: )
