More about: Sensitivity / Specificity

What it calculates

The “Sensitivity / Specificity” calculator computes Sensitivity in % from 4 parameters: true positives (tp), false negatives (fn), true negatives (tn), false positives (fp).

A core calculation for studying, engineering tasks, and checking solutions.

Example calculation

With parameters True positives (TP) = 90, False negatives (FN) = 10, True negatives (TN) = 80, False positives (FP) = 20 the result is 90 %.

How to use

  1. Enter true positives (tp), false negatives (fn), true negatives (tn) and false positives (fp) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
  2. Sensitivity (%) is calculated automatically as you type.
  3. Check the worked example below to see the formula applied to real numbers.
  4. Copy the result or bookmark this calculator.
