percentage standard deviation,
(%),
(%)
The value of the
relative standard deviation
, expressed in
percent
. It can be calculated from the relative
standard deviation
by multiplying by 100. Comment: It is recommended that the '
relative
standard deviation
' be reported, rather than the '
percentage
standard deviation
', in order to avoid confusion where results themselves are expressed as percentages. The term '
coefficient
of variation
' in place of '
relative
standard deviation
' is not recommended.
