PSYC 2301-The range is completely determined by the two extreme scores in a distribution
January 13th, 2018
The range is completely determined by the two extreme scores in a distribution. The standard deviation, on the other hand, uses every score.a. compute the range (choose either definition) and the standard deviation for the following sample of n=5 scores. Note that there are three scores clustered around the mean in the center of the distribution, and two extreme values.Scores: 0 6 7 8 14b. now break up the cluster in the center of the distribution by moving two of the central scores out of the extremes. Once again compute the range and the standard deviationNew Scores: 0 0 7 14 14c. According to the range, how do the two distributions compare in variability? How do they compare according to the standard deviation?
