Spezifität
Spezifität, often translated as specificity, is a key concept in various scientific and technical fields, denoting the degree to which a test, method, or substance produces a true negative result when the condition or substance being tested for is absent. In diagnostic testing, for instance, high specificity means that a positive result is very likely to indicate the presence of the target condition, as false positives are rare. Conversely, low specificity implies a higher probability of false positives, where the test indicates a condition that is not actually present.
The concept is closely related to sensitivity, which measures the test's ability to correctly identify true
In other contexts, such as data analysis or machine learning, specificity can refer to the precision with
