Question 10 • Psychology A

A __________ score allows a researcher to compare scores across different scales.

Answer
A
raw
B
distributed
C
standard
D
deviated

Explanation

A standard score expresses a result in relation to a common reference, often by showing how far it is from the average in standard-deviation units. This makes it possible to compare scores from different scales; a raw score is still tied to its original scale.
