What else can I help you with?
What if a standard score is 57 and the average is 100 Is that three standard deviations below the mean or almost three?
The answer depends on what the standard deviation is.
What happens to the standard score as the standard deviation increase?
The standardised score decreases.
How many SD below or above the mean would this child's z-score of -2 be?
2 standard deviation's below the mean
Why use the T score?
T-score is used when you don't have the population standard deviation and must use the sample standard deviation as a substitute.
Which is better a score of 92 on a test with a mean of 71 and a standard deviation of 15 or a score of 688 on a test with a mean of 493 and a standard deviation of 150?
score of 92
What does a z-score of -1.5 mean?
z-score of a value=(that value minus the mean)/(standard deviation). So a z-score of -1.5 means that a value is 1.5 standard deviations below the mean.
What does a negative z-score mean?
z-score of a value=(that value minus the mean)/(standard deviation). So if a value has a negative z-score, then it is below the mean.
What happens to the standard score as the standard deviation increases?
The absolute value of the standard score becomes smaller.
How do you calculate standard deviation with the help of z-score?
A z-score cannot help calculate standard deviation. In fact the very point of z-scores is to remove any contribution from the mean or standard deviation.
When is a t test better than a z score?
When you don't have the population standard deviation, but do have the sample standard deviation. The Z score will be better to do as long as it is possible to do it.
How do you know if a z score is positive or negative?
A negative Z-Score corresponds to a negative standard deviation, i.e. an observation that is less than the mean, when the standard deviation is normalized so that the standard deviation is zero when the mean is zero.
A z score is most affected by?
standard deviation
