Measure Of Dispersion (Cont.)

  3.    The standard deviation
  • A deviation is the difference between an individual value in a set of data and the mean for the data.
  • Standard Deviation averages the square of the distance that each piece of data is from the mean.
  • The smaller the standard deviation, the more compact the data set.
