Summary
DescriptionIQ curve.svg | Current IQ tests typically have standard scores such that the mean score is 100 with each standard deviation from the mean counting for 15 IQ points.[1] The plot shows, assuming that such scores have a normal distribution, the percentage of people getting a score versus the score itself, from 55 to 145 IQ, that is over a span of six standard deviations. Spans are represented with different colors for each standard deviation above or below the mean. The plot was created with the following gnuplot code: |
