Question

1. Hand calculate the Standard Deviation for RESTING HEART RATES below (using instructions provided):

a. Add scores (sum)

b. Calculate mean

c. Subtract mean from each score (individual deviation)

d. Square individual deviations

e. Add squared deviations

f. Divide sum of squared deviations by N (sample size) (VARIANCE)

g. Take square root (STANDARD DEVIATION)
