Answer:

Measure of Data Dispersion

Explanation:

Standard deviation is used to show the variation and dispersion in a group of data. It shows how separated the data's are to each other and how each data can be related to the other.

A normal data distribution are those group of data, that are distributed in a wide range. The standard deviation helps to to measure how they are been spread out.

Standard deviation does not measure the shape, quality, and center of data. This are measured with graphs, range, mean and median.
