The relative standard deviation is the absolute value of the ration of the sample mean to the sample standard deviation. This value appears to be quite small; however, without comparative data it is difficult to know what to make of it. In some contexts it might even be considered large.

When do you use the relative standard deviation instead of standard deviation?

Use %RSD when comparing the deviation for popolations with different means. Use SD to compare data with the same mean.


What is the relative dispersion with the mean of 45000 and a standard deviation of 9000?

Relative dispersion = coefficient of variation = (9000/45000)(100) = 20.


If quartile deviation is 24. find mean deviation and standard deviation?

Information is not sufficient to find mean deviation and standard deviation.


Is standard deviation same as standard error?

From what ive gathered standard error is how relative to the population some data is, such as how relative an answer is to men or to women. The lower the standard error the more meaningful to the population the data is. Standard deviation is how different sets of data vary between each other, sort of like the mean. * * * * * Not true! Standard deviation is a property of the whole population or distribution. Standard error applies to a sample taken from the population and is an estimate for the standard deviation.


What does standard deviation help you find?

Standard deviation helps you identify the relative level of variation from the mean or equation approximating the relationship in the data set. In a normal distribution 1 standard deviation left or right of the mean = 68.2% of the data 2 standard deviations left or right of the mean = 95.4% of the data 3 standard deviations left or right of the mean = 99.6% of the data


What a large standard deviation means?

A large standard deviation means that the data were spread out. It is relative whether or not you consider a standard deviation to be "large" or not, but a larger standard deviation always means that the data is more spread out than a smaller one. For example, if the mean was 60, and the standard deviation was 1, then this is a small standard deviation. The data is not spread out and a score of 74 or 43 would be highly unlikely, almost impossible. However, if the mean was 60 and the standard deviation was 20, then this would be a large standard deviation. The data is spread out more and a score of 74 or 43 wouldn't be odd or unusual at all.


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.


Can standard deviation be greater than mean?

Standard deviation can be greater than the mean.


Relation between mean and standard deviation?

Standard deviation is the variance from the mean of the data.
