What else can I help you with?
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.
What happens to the standard score as the standard deviation increases?
The absolute value of the standard score becomes smaller.
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 normality is required for standard deviation application?
Because the z-score table, which is heavily related to standard deviation, is only applicable to normal distributions.
If a test score of 83 was transformed into a standard score of -1.5 and the standard deviation of the scores was 4 what is the mean?
78
What happens to the standard score as the standard deviation increase?
The standardised score decreases.
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.
Is 119 an average id score for a 7 year old?
An average IQ score for a 7 year old is typically around 100, so a score of 119 would be considered above average. IQ scores are standardized to have a mean of 100 with a standard deviation of 15, so a score of 119 would fall about 1 standard deviation above the average.
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 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
Scores on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 76 and a standard deviation of 10 In a group of 230 tests how many students score below 66?
There are approximately 16.4% of students who score below 66 on the exam.
How many SD below or above the mean would this child's z-score of -2 be?
2 standard deviation's below the mean
Can The standard deviation of a distribution be a negative value?
No. The standard deviation is not exactly a value but rather how far a score deviates from the mean.
