It is shown that the dispersion of the metallicity of Galactic disk stars determined from an Fe/H concentration compilation (Cayrel et al., 1985) is, for the most part, of methodic origin and does not characterize the true Fe/H concentration dispersion. An analysis of homogeneous series of spectroscopic metallicity determinations makes it possible to assume that the true cosmic dispersion of the metallicity is of the order of 0.1 dex. The dispersion of the metallicity index in the uvby, beta system does not reflect the real variations of the metallicity for disk stars.
