Abstract
A high strength steel sheet and method for manufacturing the same. The steel sheet has a specified chemical composition and a specified microstructure. A value calculated by dividing the average Mn content in retained austenite by the average Mn content in ferrite is 1.5 or more, a value calculated by dividing the sum of the area fraction of as-quenched martensite having a circle-equivalent grain size of 3 μm or more and the area fraction of retained austenite having a circle-equivalent grain size of 3 μm or more by the sum of the area fraction of all the as-quenched martensite and the area fraction of all the retained austenite is less than 0.4, and a value calculated by dividing the area fraction of retained austenite grains adjacent to three or more ferrite grains having different crystal orientations by the area fraction of all the retained austenite is less than 0.6.
