Condition positive Condition negative

Test
outcome
positive
True positive
(TP) = 20
False positive
(FP) = 180
Positive predictive value (PPV)
= TP / (TP + FP)
= 20 / (20 + 180)
= 10%
Test
outcome
negative
False negative
(FN) = 10
True negative
(TN) = 1820
Negative predictive value (NPV)
= TN / (FN + TN)
= 1820 / (10 + 1820)
99.5%
Sensitivity
= TP / (TP + FN)
= 20 / (20 + 10)
67%
Specificity
= TN / (FP + TN)
= 1820 / (180 + 1820)
= 91%
