The standard deviation is a popular and powerful measure of variability, but it is only appropriate for describing normal distributions, although some researchers do not appreciate this and you might find many violations of this rule in published literature.

Sample Standard Deviation - Management By The Numbers
... If there are lots of data points with a unimodal, symmetric (bell-shaped) distribution, a rough rule of thumb says that 68% of the values will fall within one standard deviation of the sample average. Using our previous example where the sample average = 5.8 and the standard deviation = 4.71 (and pr ...
