▶︎ In this statistics video tutorial you will learn the underlying concept of the Sample Standard Deviation, and what it is actually measuring. We will also explain the concept of the Degrees of Freedom and why do you divide by (n-1)?
▶︎ Standard deviation gives us a measure of how far individual observations tend to move (or deviate) away from the mean, on average. In other words, on average how far does an observation tend to get from the mean? It is not quite the average deviation, but we can think of it that way conceptually.
▶︎ While we present the standard deviation formula, the focus is on the concept of what the standard deviation is attempting to summarize. We believe this to be one of the best explanations of standard deviation that you will see.
