Inter quartile range value is 2 whichindicate that there is very low difference between Q3 and Q1 which means that data pointsrelated to variable are in very small range.(5) Mean and standard deviation of variable satisfaction from lifeDescriptive StatisticsNMeanStd.DeviationHow satisfied with life as a whole400577.092.170Valid N (listwise)40057InterpretationMean value of variable satisfaction from life is 7.09 and STDEV is 2.170 which meansthat people are moderately satisfied from their life. Standard deviation is low which means thatmost of respondents are giving same response on asked question.2 | P a g e
