Discuss in detail the characteristics of probability and the use of screening tests and their positive or negative predictive value

Probability concepts of sensitivity, specificity, and negative and positive predictive values are applied in different fields to determine whether certain indicators of an event can accurately predict the presence or the lack of that wholesome event within a sample. For instance screening tests used in medicine in place of accurate diagnostic tests to determine whether members of a particular population may eventually test positive for a particular disease thereby………….
