Title: Backward Probability Template
Url: http://facultysites.vassar.edu/lowry/pback.html
Creator: Lowry, Richard
Publisher: Vassar College
Description: Given the population incidence of a certain disease, and the conditional probabilities of positive and negative test results, what are the probabilities for a particular test result of a true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative? Adaptable to other kinds of conditional situations. Although this page is adaptable to a variety of backward probability situations, its exemplary case is the one in which one is seeking to make sense of the result of a medical test.
