- If you report just average response time, your phone will ring. We report
- average and the sum of average plus one standard deviation. I have
- thought about changing it to the sum of average plus two standard
- deviations but have not convinced myself and/or found the time.
-
- The sum of average plus one standard deviation is the number I pay the
- most attention to.
