The interpretation of IQ scores is based on a normal distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 points. The standard deviation measures the dispersion of scores from the average. Consequently, scores falling between 85 and 115, which is within one standard deviation of the mean, are considered average and encompass about 68% of the population. An IQ score of 130 or higher is regarded as being in the superior range.
