How do you calculate plus or minus one standard deviation?
To calculate plus or minus one standard deviation from a mean, first determine the mean (average) of your data set. Then calculate the standard deviation, which measures the dispersion of the data points around the mean. Once you have both values, you can find the range by adding and subtracting the standard deviation from the mean: the lower limit is the mean minus one standard deviation, and the upper limit is the mean plus one standard deviation. This range contains approximately 68% of the data in a normal distribution.
What does standard deviation provide when measuring the range of possible outcomes of a distribution?
It is a measure of the spread of the outcomes around the mean value.
How do you find the interquartile range when given the mean and standard deviation?
In general you cannot. You will need to know more about the distribution of the variable - you cannot assume that the distribution is uniform or Normal.
What is a measure of the width of a distribution of a set of numbers that includes the range the iqr and standard deviation?
The width of a distribution can be measured using several metrics, including range, interquartile range (IQR), and standard deviation. The range provides the difference between the maximum and minimum values, while the IQR represents the spread of the middle 50% of the data, indicating variability without being affected by outliers. Standard deviation quantifies the average distance of each data point from the mean, offering insights into the overall dispersion of the dataset. Together, these measures provide a comprehensive view of the distribution's width and variability.
Is it possible that you can have a smaller range and a large standard deviation?
Yes. Consider 1,1,1,1,1,3,5,5,5,5,5 and 0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,5 Set 1: Range = 4, sd = 2.00 Set 2: Range = 5, sd = 1.14
Is the uniform probability distribution's standard deviation proportional to the distribution's range?
no

The mean plus or minus the standard deviation for a normal distribution provides a probability range of what percent?
in a normal distribution, the mean plus or minus one standard deviation covers 68.2% of the data. If you use two standard deviations, then you will cover approx. 95.5%, and three will earn you 99.7% coverage
How do you find the interquartile range when given the mean and standard deviation?
In general you cannot. You will need to know more about the distribution of the variable - you cannot assume that the distribution is uniform or Normal.
What are are measures of variability or dispersion within a set of data?
Some measures:Range,Interquartile range,Interpercentile ranges,Mean absolute deviation,Variance,Standard deviation.Some measures:Range,Interquartile range,Interpercentile ranges,Mean absolute deviation,Variance,Standard deviation.Some measures:Range,Interquartile range,Interpercentile ranges,Mean absolute deviation,Variance,Standard deviation.Some measures:Range,Interquartile range,Interpercentile ranges,Mean absolute deviation,Variance,Standard deviation.
Is it better to use range or mean absolute deviation when describing any distribution?
I think its better to use range deviation in any distribution because it doesn't cause any trouble
What is the range of standard deviation of 18 15 12 13 17 14 19 20 8?
The range is 12 and the standard deviation is 3.822448314.
Does an outlier have a greater effect on the standard deviation or interquartile range?
On the standard deviation. It has no effect on the IQR.
How many standard deviation tend to cover the entire range of scores in a distribution?
Type your answer here... It depends what percentage of the total data you want to embrace. 99.73% of the total distribution lies between minus to plus 3 standard deviations. That's usually the benchmark range.
How do you find the semi-interquartile range with only the mean and standard deviation?
In general, you cannot. If the distribution can be assumed to be Gaussian [Normal] then you could use z-scores.
Find the range and standard deviation of the data set. 22 18 19 25 27 21 24?
The range is 9 and 3.01 is the standard deviation.
Is it possible that you can have a smaller range and a large standard deviation?
Yes. Consider 1,1,1,1,1,3,5,5,5,5,5 and 0,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,5 Set 1: Range = 4, sd = 2.00 Set 2: Range = 5, sd = 1.14
