The sum of standard deviations from the mean is the error.
95% is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
The mean for the WISC, like the WAIS, is 100. The deviations from 100, or standard deviations, are 15.
2 times the standard deviation!
Z-Score tells how many standard deviations a measurement is away from the mean.
How many standard deviations is 16.50 from the mean?
See the related links on how to calculate standard deviation. If there are more than a dozen data points, it is tedious to calculate by hand. Use excel or an online calculator. To get 2 standard deviations, multiply the calculated std deviation by 2.
The sum of standard deviations from the mean is the error.
All minor deviations occurring with two standard deviations under the Gaussian curve are considered normal. Deviations occurring outside of two standard deviations are considered abnormal.
95% is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
The mean for the WISC, like the WAIS, is 100. The deviations from 100, or standard deviations, are 15.
You can't average means with standard deviations. What are you trying to do with the two sets of data?
2 times the standard deviation!
That depends on what the standard deviation is.

Z-Score tells how many standard deviations a measurement is away from the mean.
I believe the standard deviations are measured from the median, not the mean.1 Standard Deviation is 34% each side of median, so that is 68% total.2 Standard Deviations is 48% each side of median, so that is 96% total.
