How is a True Positive determined?

  1. By matching actual negative outcomes

  2. By matching actual and predicted positive outcomes

  3. By guessing outcomes

  4. By randomly selecting results

The correct answer is: By matching actual and predicted positive outcomes

A True Positive is determined by correctly identifying a positive outcome when it is actually present. In the context of project management and data analysis, this involves comparing predicted results with actual results and confirming that both indicate a positive outcome. When actual and predicted positive outcomes match, it confirms the accuracy of the identification process, demonstrating the effectiveness of the predictive model or assessment being used. The alternative options do not align with the definition of a True Positive. Matching actual negative outcomes pertains to True Negatives, while guessing outcomes and randomly selecting results do not incorporate any informed decision-making or predictive capability, making them irrelevant to the concept of True Positives. Therefore, the correct option provides the necessary correlation between actual and predicted positive results, reinforcing the validity of performance in measuring success or outcomes in project management processes.
