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.


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?

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


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.


Why does the standard deviation get smaller as the individual in a group score more similarly on a test?

Because the standard deviation is a measure of the spread in scores. As individuals score more similarly, the spread gets smaller. Because the standard deviation is a measure of the spread in scores. As individuals score more similarly, the spread gets smaller. Because the standard deviation is a measure of the spread in scores. As individuals score more similarly, the spread gets smaller. Because the standard deviation is a measure of the spread in scores. As individuals score more similarly, the spread gets smaller.


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.


What does denominator of z-score measure?

The standard deviation.z-score of a value=(that value minus the mean)/(standard deviation)
