Rating metrics: Help Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 71.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

“Better or at least easier to like than most bossa nova I’ve tried up to this point, it’s easy to tell that the flute makes all the difference, its elegance is reminiscent of classical music and more than makes up for any lack of energy or suspense. 6.5/10. That’s another typical Hank Mobley…”
