Standard Deviation!

Standard Deviation The standard deviation is a measure how spread out numbers in a data set are from the mean. The wider the spread of scores, the larger the standard deviation.

BILL: Which fruit has the largest SD. How do you know BILL: Which fruit has the largest SD? How do you know? What does this mean?

Standard Deviation For data that has a normal distribution, 68% of the data lies within one standard deviation of the mean. One SD

Use the following steps to calculate the SD for the 0 Use the following steps to calculate the SD for the 0.0 osmol/L set of data

How to calculate the standard deviation: Calculate the mean (M) of a set of data

How to calculate the standard deviation: Subtract the mean from each point of data to determine (X-M)

How to calculate the standard deviation: Square each of the resulting numbers to determine (X-M)2

How to calculate the standard deviation: Add the values from the previous step together to get ∑(X-M)2

How to calculate the standard deviation: Calculate (n-1) by subtracting 1 from your sample size. Your sample size is the total number of data points you collected.

How to calculate the standard deviation: Divide the answer from ∑(X-M)2 by the answer from (n-1) to find ∑(X-M)2 n-1

How to calculate the standard deviation: Calculate the square root of your previous answer to determine the standard deviation
