The author would like to apologise for an error in calculating standard deviation using logistic regression in the publication of Annals of Human Biology, 2008; 35(3): 294–321. DOI: 10.1080/03014460801971445
Timing of human mandibular third molar formation

The standard logistic distribution has a variance = and a standard deviation = (Greene WH, Hensher DA. 2010. Modeling ordered choices. A primer. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, page 16.). This means that standard deviation values of mean age entering tooth stages in Tables II to V are incorrect and require a correction factor. The standard deviation in Tables II and V should be corrected by multiplying with 1.814 year.
