Final answer:

The positive deviation indicates a higher position in the class distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The deviation score that indicates a higher position in the class distribution is the positive deviation.

The positive deviation occurs when a data point is greater than the mean. It represents a higher position in the class distribution because it indicates that the data point is above or to the right of the mean.
