No, standardization does not change the general shape of its distribution; it only shifts the mean to zero and scales the standard deviation to one. It is a linear transformation, so a highly skewed distribution remains skewed after standardization.
Conditions: The dataset has a well-defined mean and standard deviation.; Standardization is applied as a linear transformation.
