Range and standard deviation are similar in that each looks
- A. The difference between the high and the low scores
- B. The numerical value that occurs the most often
- C. How spread out the data is.
- D. The central score
Step-by-step solution
Range and standard deviation are measures of dispersion. Range is the difference between the highest and lowest scores, while standard deviation quantifies the average distance of data points from the mean. Both describe the spread or variability of the data.
