#* Sigmas can function well in social groups if needed, but they also enjoy spending time alone.
#* They don’t depend on others and are comfortable being their own best friend.
# '''Emotional Independence''':
#* Sigmas don’t rely on external validation for happiness or completeness.
#* They take full responsibility for their own feelings.
# '''Authenticity''':
#* Authenticity is a common trait among sigmas.
#* They are genuine, comfortable in their own skin, and don’t pretend to be someone they’re not.
# '''Quiet Confidence''':
#* Sigmas may not appear extremely confident like alphas, but they have strong self-esteem.
#* Their quiet demeanor often hides their inner confidence.
# '''Success-Oriented''':
#* Sigmas tend to be successful because of their self-reliance, ambition, and determination.
#* They know what they want and pursue it relentlessly.
# '''Great Listeners''':
#* Their introverted nature allows them to listen attentively to others.

Remember that being a sigma is not better or worse than other personality types—it’s simply a unique combination of traits. Embrace your individuality and continue to grow!

The median, minimum, maximum, and the first and third quartile constitute the [[Five-number summary]].<ref>Dekking, Kraaikamp, Lopuhaä & Meester, pp. 235–237</ref> ==Distributions== The interquartile range of a continuous distribution can be calculated by integrating the [[probability density function]] (which yields the [[cumulative distribution function]]—any other means of calculating the CDF will also work). The lower quartile, ''Q''<sub>1</sub>, is a number such that integral of the PDF from -∞ to ''Q''<sub>1</sub> equals 0.25, while the upper quartile, ''Q''<sub>3</sub>, is such a number that the integral from -∞ to ''Q''<sub>3</sub> equals 0.75; in terms of the CDF, the quartiles can be defined as follows: :<math>Q_1 = \text{CDF}^{-1}(0.25) ,</math> :<math>Q_3 = \text{CDF}^{-1}(0.75) ,</math> where CDF<sup>−1</sup> is the [[quantile function]]. The interquartile range and median of some common distributions are shown below {| class="wikitable" |- ! Distribution ! Median ! IQR |- | [[Normal distribution|Normal]] | μ | 2 Φ<sup>&minus;1</sup>(0.75)σ ≈ 1.349σ ≈ (27/20)σ |- | [[Laplace distribution|Laplace]] | μ | 2''b''&nbsp;ln(2) ≈ 1.386''b'' |- | [[Cauchy distribution|Cauchy]] | μ |2γ |} ===Interquartile range test for normality of distribution=== The IQR, [[mean]], and [[standard deviation]] of a population ''P'' can be used in a simple test of whether or not ''P'' is [[Normal distribution|normally distributed]], or Gaussian. If ''P'' is normally distributed, then the [[standard score]] of the first quartile, ''z''<sub>1</sub>, is −0.67, and the standard score of the third quartile, ''z''<sub>3</sub>, is +0.67. Given ''mean''&nbsp;=&nbsp;<math>\bar{P}</math> and ''standard&nbsp;deviation''&nbsp;=&nbsp;σ for ''P'', if ''P'' is normally distributed, the first quartile :<math>Q_1 = (\sigma \, z_1) + \bar{P}</math> and the third quartile :<math>Q_3 = (\sigma \, z_3) + \bar{P}</math> If the actual values of the first or third quartiles differ substantially{{Clarify|date=December 2012}} from the calculated values, ''P'' is not normally distributed. However, a normal distribution can be trivially perturbed to maintain its Q1 and Q2 std. scores at 0.67 and −0.67 and not be normally distributed (so the above test would produce a false positive). A better test of normality, such as [[Q–Q plot]] would be indicated here. ==Outliers== [[File:Box-Plot mit Interquartilsabstand.png|thumb|[[Box-and-whisker plot]] with four mild outliers and one extreme outlier. In this chart, outliers are defined as mild above Q3 + 1.5 IQR and extreme above Q3 + 3 IQR.]] The interquartile range is often used to find [[outlier]]s in data. Outliers here are defined as observations that fall below Q1 − 1.5 IQR or above Q3 + 1.5 IQR. In a boxplot, the highest and lowest occurring value within this limit are indicated by ''whiskers'' of the box (frequently with an additional bar at the end of the whisker) and any outliers as individual points. ==See also== * {{Annotated link|Interdecile range}} * {{Annotated link|Midhinge}} * {{Annotated link|Probable error}} * {{Annotated link|Robust measures of scale}} ==References== {{reflist|refs= <ref name=Upton>{{cite book |title=Understanding Statistics |first1=Graham|last1=Upton|first2=Ian|last2= Cook|year=1996 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=0-19-914391-9 |page=55 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vXzWG09_SzAC&q=interquartile+range&pg=PA55}}</ref> <ref name= ZK>Zwillinger, D., Kokoska, S.

Given ''mean''&nbsp;=&nbsp;<math>\bar{P}</math> and ''standard&nbsp;deviation''&nbsp;=&nbsp;σ for ''P'', if ''P'' is normally distributed, the first quartile :<math>Q_1 = (\sigma \, z_1) + \bar{P}</math> and the third quartile :<math>Q_3 = (\sigma \, z_3) + \bar{P}</math> If the actual values of the first or third quartiles differ substantially{{Clarify|date=December 2012}} from the calculated values, ''P'' is not normally distributed. However, a normal distribution can be trivially perturbed to maintain its Q1 and Q2 std. scores at 0.67 and −0.67 and not be normally distributed (so the above test would produce a false positive). A better test of normality, such as [[Q–Q plot]] would be indicated here. ==Outliers== [[File:Box-Plot mit Interquartilsabstand.png|thumb|[[Box-and-whisker plot]] with four mild outliers and one extreme outlier. In this chart, outliers are defined as mild above Q3 + 1.5 IQR and extreme above Q3 + 3 IQR.]] The interquartile range is often used to find [[outlier]]s in data. Outliers here are defined as observations that fall below Q1 − 1.5 IQR or above Q3 + 1.5 IQR. In a boxplot, the highest and lowest occurring value within this limit are indicated by ''whiskers'' of the box (frequently with an additional bar at the end of the whisker) and any outliers as individual points. ==See also== * {{Annotated link|Interdecile range}} * {{Annotated link|Midhinge}} * {{Annotated link|Probable error}} * {{Annotated link|Robust measures of scale}} ==References== {{reflist|refs= <ref name=Upton>{{cite book |title=Understanding Statistics |first1=Graham|last1=Upton|first2=Ian|last2= Cook|year=1996 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=0-19-914391-9 |page=55 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vXzWG09_SzAC&q=interquartile+range&pg=PA55}}</ref> <ref name= ZK>Zwillinger, D., Kokoska, S.

Why am I sigma? 6 reasons 999
In [[descriptive statistics]], the '''interquartile range''' ('''IQR''') is a measure of [[statistical dispersion]], which is the spread of the data.<ref name=":1">{{Cite book|last=Dekking|first=Frederik Michel|url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/1-84628-168-7|title=A Modern Introduction to Probability and Statistics|last2=Kraaikamp|first2=Cornelis|last3=Lopuhaä|first3=Hen Paul|last4=Meester|first4=Ludolf Erwin|date=2005|publisher=Springer London|isbn=978-1-85233-896-1|series=Springer Texts in Statistics|location=London|doi=10.1007/1-84628-168-7}}</ref> The IQR may also be called the '''midspread''', '''middle 50%''', '''fourth spread''', or L'''‑spread.''' It is defined as the difference between the 75th and 25th [[percentiles]] of the data.<ref name="Upton" /><ref name="ZK" /><ref>{{Cite book|last=Ross|first=Sheldon|title=Introductory Statistics|publisher=Elsevier|year=2010|isbn=978-0-12-374388-6|location=Burlington, MA|pages=103–104}}</ref> To calculate the IQR, the data set is divided into [[quartile]]s, or four rank-ordered even parts via linear interpolation.<ref name=":1" /> These quartiles are denoted by Q<sub>1</sub> (also called the lower quartile), ''Q''<sub>2</sub> (the [[median]]), and ''Q''<sub>3</sub> (also called the upper quartile). The lower quartile corresponds with the 25th percentile and the upper quartile corresponds with the 75th percentile, so IQR = ''Q''<sub>3</sub> −  ''Q''<sub>1</sub><ref name=":1" /><sub>.</sub>


# '''Self-Reliance''':
The IQR is an example of a [[trimmed estimator]], defined as the 25% trimmed [[Range (statistics)|range]], which enhances the accuracy of dataset statistics by dropping lower contribution, outlying points.<ref name=":2">{{Cite book|last=Kaltenbach|first=Hans-Michael|url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/763157853|title=A concise guide to statistics|date=2012|publisher=Springer|isbn=978-3-642-23502-3|location=Heidelberg|oclc=763157853}}</ref> It is also used as a [[Robust measures of scale|robust measure of scale]]<ref name=":2" /> It can be clearly visualized by the box on a [[box plot]].<ref name=":1" />
#* Sigmas can function well in social groups if needed, but they also enjoy spending time alone.
#* They don’t depend on others and are comfortable being their own best friend.
# '''Emotional Independence''':
#* Sigmas don’t rely on external validation for happiness or completeness.
#* They take full responsibility for their own feelings.
# '''Authenticity''':
#* Authenticity is a common trait among sigmas.
#* They are genuine, comfortable in their own skin, and don’t pretend to be someone they’re not.
# '''Quiet Confidence''':
#* Sigmas may not appear extremely confident like alphas, but they have strong self-esteem.
#* Their quiet demeanor often hides their inner confidence.
# '''Success-Oriented''':
#* Sigmas tend to be successful because of their self-reliance, ambition, and determination.
#* They know what they want and pursue it relentlessly.
# '''Great Listeners''':

The lower quartile, ''Q''<sub>1</sub>, is a number such that integral of the PDF from -∞ to ''Q''<sub>1</sub> equals 0.25, while the upper quartile, ''Q''<sub>3</sub>, is such a number that the integral from -∞ to ''Q''<sub>3</sub> equals 0.75; in terms of the CDF, the quartiles can be defined as follows: :<math>Q_1 = \text{CDF}^{-1}(0.25) ,</math> :<math>Q_3 = \text{CDF}^{-1}(0.75) ,</math> where CDF<sup>−1</sup> is the [[quantile function]]. The interquartile range and median of some common distributions are shown below {| class="wikitable" |- ! Distribution ! Median !

If ''P'' is normally distributed, then the [[standard score]] of the first quartile, ''z''<sub>1</sub>, is −0.67, and the standard score of the third quartile, ''z''<sub>3</sub>, is +0.67. Given ''mean''&nbsp;=&nbsp;<math>\bar{P}</math> and ''standard&nbsp;deviation''&nbsp;=&nbsp;σ for ''P'', if ''P'' is normally distributed, the first quartile :<math>Q_1 = (\sigma \, z_1) + \bar{P}</math> and the third quartile :<math>Q_3 = (\sigma \, z_3) + \bar{P}</math> If the actual values of the first or third quartiles differ substantially{{Clarify|date=December 2012}} from the calculated values, ''P'' is not normally distributed. However, a normal distribution can be trivially perturbed to maintain its Q1 and Q2 std. scores at 0.67 and −0.67 and not be normally distributed (so the above test would produce a false positive). A better test of normality, such as [[Q–Q plot]] would be indicated here. ==Outliers== [[File:Box-Plot mit Interquartilsabstand.png|thumb|[[Box-and-whisker plot]] with four mild outliers and one extreme outlier. In this chart, outliers are defined as mild above Q3 + 1.5 IQR and extreme above Q3 + 3 IQR.]] The interquartile range is often used to find [[outlier]]s in data. Outliers here are defined as observations that fall below Q1 − 1.5 IQR or above Q3 + 1.5 IQR. In a boxplot, the highest and lowest occurring value within this limit are indicated by ''whiskers'' of the box (frequently with an additional bar at the end of the whisker) and any outliers as individual points. ==See also== * {{Annotated link|Interdecile range}} * {{Annotated link|Midhinge}} * {{Annotated link|Probable error}} * {{Annotated link|Robust measures of scale}} ==References== {{reflist|refs= <ref name=Upton>{{cite book |title=Understanding Statistics |first1=Graham|last1=Upton|first2=Ian|last2= Cook|year=1996 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=0-19-914391-9 |page=55 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vXzWG09_SzAC&q=interquartile+range&pg=PA55}}</ref> <ref name= ZK>Zwillinger, D., Kokoska, S.
