Default Re: How much does this screw up my SD calculations?

Your SD calculations will be assuming independence, when in fact your data is highly correlated. Correlated data has higher variance than uncorrelated data. So, without thinking too hard about the math, my immediate thought is that your sample variance (used to calculated your standard error and estimate your standard deviation) will be too low.
