a particular score. This assessment included a standard score mean of 100 with a standard deviation of 15 with an average range of 85-115.

Amanda scored a standard score of 76 placing her -1 standard deviations below the mean on the Core…

The purpose of this study is to measure the differences between age in relation to risk-taking/impulsiveness and reaction time. The reason being, we are interested in figuring out whether or not younger adults are more prone to risk-taking and impulsiveness than the older adults are.
