First, find the mean:

\text{Mean} = \frac{10 + 12 + 14 + 15 + 17 + 19}{6} = \frac{87}{6} = 14.5

Now find the absolute deviations from the mean:

|10 - 14.5| = 4.5,\quad |12 - 14.5| = 2.5,\quad |14 - 14.5| = 0.5

Sum of deviations:

4.5 + 2.5 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 2.5 + 4.5 = 15

Mean deviation:

\frac{15}{6} = 2.5

Final Answer: 2.5
