What is standard error difference in SPSS?
n. Std Error Difference – Standard Error difference is the estimated standard deviation of the difference between the sample means. If we drew repeated samples of size 200, we would expect the standard deviation of the sample means to be close to the standard error.
What is standard error mean in SPSS?
The standard error is a measure of the typical amount that that a sample mean will be off from the true mean.
What does the standard error tell us?

The standard error of the mean, or simply standard error, indicates how different the population mean is likely to be from a sample mean. It tells you how much the sample mean would vary if you were to repeat a study using new samples from within a single population.
What does the standard error tell you?
Is a standard deviation of 2 high?
The empirical rule Around 68% of scores are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, Around 95% of scores are within 2 standard deviations of the mean, Around 99.7% of scores are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

How do you interpret standard error of measurement?
Standard Error of Measurement is directly related to a test’s reliability: The larger the SEm, the lower the test’s reliability.
- If test reliability = 0, the SEM will equal the standard deviation of the observed test scores.
- If test reliability = 1.00, the SEM is zero.
What is a high standard error?
A high standard error shows that sample means are widely spread around the population mean—your sample may not closely represent your population. A low standard error shows that sample means are closely distributed around the population mean—your sample is representative of your population.
What does a SD of 1 mean?
Roughly speaking, in a normal distribution, a score that is 1 s.d. above the mean is equivalent to the 84th percentile.
