A simple explanation of standard deviation, for journalists and other writers who might not know math. ... The standard deviation is kind of the "mean of the mean," and often can help you find the story behind the data. To understand this concept, it can help to learn about what statisticians call normal distribution of data.

To calculate the standard deviation for a population, N is used in the denominator instead of N-1. Suffice it to say that in most contexts, regardless of the purpose of your data analysis, computer programs will print the result from the sample sd. So we will use the second formula as our definitional formula for...

Standard Deviation of the Estimated Means ... The most common way to describe the range of variation is standard deviation (usually denoted by the Greek letter sigma: ). The standard deviation is simply the square root of the variance, so lets start by describing the variance.

Lower case sigma means 'standard deviation'. Capital sigma means 'the sum of'. x bar means 'the mean'; The standard deviation measures the spread of the data about the mean value. It is useful in comparing sets of data which may have the same mean but a different range.
