  • What is a nominal variable?

    One that has two options and is non numerous (or made artificially numerous) (example, does someone work part time or fill time)
  • What is a discrete variable?

    One with whole numbers as an answer
  • Which graphs are appropriate for ordinal variables?

    Histogram or pie chart
  • How does one measure the center and spread of an ordinal variable?

    Measure = mode (median only when intervals between variables are even)
    Spread = not applicable for ordinal variable
  • You want to measure the central value and variation of a discrete variable, how does one do that?

    Central value = mean, mode, median
    Variation = standard deviation and IQR
  • How can outliers be identified

    Z-score (outside -2,5 & 2,5) or box plot
  • How to compare two discrete variables before and after?

    Make two histograms or make two box plots
  • Which test is appropriate to test if two qualitative variables relate?

    Make a cross table and do a chi squared test (with chi square test all cells should have a count of at least 5) (row 1 * row 2 / total count)
  • Which test is appropriate if you measure or describe the relation between two qualitative variables?

    Kendall tau-b if 2x2 of 3x3 if ordinal x ordinal
    Kendall tau-c if 2x3 or 1x3 if ordinal x ordinal
    Cramer's V is norminal x ordinal
  • Which test is appropriate if you estimate the difference between two quantitative variables of two independent samples?

    Make a confidence interval with a independent samples t-test
