I suspect it is the standard edition.
I have Pro and it shows as Windows 8 Pro as per the image below.
Alternatively, you can try the following from the command line:
systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"

To complement the other answers, I have Windows 8.1 Basic Edition, and the System Properties shows just "Windows 8.1".
In PC Settings -> PC Info, the same information is available:
This should complement the screenshots of the other editions shown in the other answers.

It will tell you on the System properties screen (WinBreak). I'm running Win 8 Pro and it reflects that:
If yours just says "Windows 8" then I would say you are running the standard version.

The only way to check your windows version is to open cmd.exe and type:
slmgr.vbs /dli
Wait a few moments, here's what mine says:
Name: Windows(R), Professional edition
Description: Windows(R) Operating System, VOLUME_KMSCLIENT channel
So, I am running Windows 8 Professional Volume Licensing
