The standard score (標準 點數, Standard score) is a dimensionless quantity that statistically forms a normal distribution and shows where each individual case lies in terms of standard deviations. It is also called the standard value, Z-value, or Z score.

It is also used in assessments such as academic achievement tests to show where each individual's score lies within the whole. It is generally distributed from 75 to 25. It began to develop from the study by the Belgian statistician Adolphe Quetelet, "A Treatise on Man and the Development of His Faculties, 1835). Today, the deviation value (偏差値), a t score converted from the standard score for better readability, is widely used.
