Trivia
Topic: Project Management
Question: In Project Management, Standard Deviation is used to measure what?
a. Central Tendency
b. Uncertainty
c. Budget Shortfalls
d. Critical Path
*See below for answer and rationale*
Trivia Rationale
Answer A (Central Tendency) is the use of mean, medium, and mode. Its purpose is to identify typical or central values.
Answer B (Uncertainty), standard deviation is a measure of how spread out the numbers are in a data set. In Project Management, standard deviation measures the uncertainty or risk of cost, time, or quality.
Answer C (Budget Shortfalls), standard deviation is not the primary tool to measure budget shortfalls, but it can support the analysis of cost variability and forecasting uncertainty.
Answer D (Critical Path), is not used to determine critical path. It can be used to assess schedule risk.
B (Uncertainty) is the correct answer.
