Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Measures of dispersion calculated from grouped data are estimates because they are based on a sample of data that only represents a portion of the population. Therefore, they may not perfectly reflect the true dispersion of the entire population. However, these estimates can still provide useful information about the variability of the data. Biased and skewed are not appropriate descriptors for measures of dispersion calculated from grouped data and means are typically used to describe measures of central tendency rather than dispersion.
