Quantitative data: Data which
are measurable or quantifiable,
such as length, weight, etc.
Qualitative data: Data which
measure intangible or objective
data, such as peoples'
attitudes and opinions.
Discrete variable: a variable
with a limited number of values
(eg, gender (male/female),
college class (freshman/
sophomore/junior/senior).
Continuous variable: A variable
that can be expressed by a
large (sometimes infinite)
number of score values. For
example, height, temperature,
and grade point average are
continuous variables.
Dichotomous: A dichotomy is any
splitting of a whole into
exactly two non-overlapping parts.
(eg. True/False Under 40/40+)
Trichotomous: Dividing into 3 parts.
(eg. Paper/Rock/Scissors)
Multinomous: ??Multiple parts??
(eg. Hydrogen/Helium/Lithium/Berylium/Boron/Carbon...)
Nominal, Ordinal, etc. :
