Hi Anonymous ,
First of all, your model relationship may be a bit problematic, it should be like this:
Secondly, the results returned by your two percentage measures may have problems, please refer to the following formula:
Percent of respondents = VAR x = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT('Sample'[External Data Reference]), ALLEXCEPT( 'Sample', 'Sample'[Sector] ) ) VAR y = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT('Sample'[External Data Reference]), ALL('Sample') ) RETURN DIVIDE( x, y, BLANK() ) Percent of total Population = VAR x = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT(Population[ID]), ALLEXCEPT( 'Population', 'Population'[Sector] ) ) VAR y = CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT(Population[ID]), ALLSELECTED('Sample'[Sector]) ) RETURN DIVIDE( x, y, BLANK() )Left_Tailed_Hypothesis = NORM.DIST( [Percent of respondents], [Percent of total Population], 1, TRUE() )The value of COUNTROWS(ALLSELECTED('Sample')) is too big, which is not suitable for Standard_dev parameters.And its value is equal to a fixed value 899.You can refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/norm-dist-dax to learn NORM.DIST() function.Best regards,

As sturlaws said, we may need the formulas of [Percentage of respondents by sector] and [Percentage in population by sector] to research the problem.
