Not necessarily. The standard deviation measures (in simplified terms) how different the numbers are from each other, while the mean is their average. If the standard deviation decreases, it means the numbers are closer to each other, it doesn't change how big the numbers are.

A standard normal distribution has a mean of and standard deviation of?
Mean 0, standard deviation 1.
What is the mean and standard deviation for the standard normal curve?
Mean = 0 Standard Deviation = 1
What is the difference between standard error of mean and standard deviation of means?
Standard error of the mean (SEM) and standard deviation of the mean is the same thing. However, standard deviation is not the same as the SEM. To obtain SEM from the standard deviation, divide the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size.
How is the mean related to standard deviation?
Mean and standard deviation are not related in any way.
What does one standard deviation mean?
Standard deviation is a measure of variation from the mean of a data set. 1 standard deviation from the mean (which is usually + and - from mean) contains 68% of the data.
