What is the standard deviation of the distribution?

• 40

• 60
• √20

A z-score tells you...

• the standard deviation of a sampling distribution.
• the original raw score on which it is based.
• if the distribution it comes from is normal.
• how many standard deviations away from the mean a score lies.

Which is NOT true about the standard normal distribution?

• It is bell-shaped.
• It is unimodal.
• The mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1.
• It is asymmetrical.
