5 examples of 4 levels of measurement in statistics
Technically is an ordinal level measurement - because the options imply a hierarchy (i.e low to high levels of your variable of interest), but we cannot say that the difference between each level is precisely the same as you would be able to with an interval measurement. There is some controversy over this though, and it is still often used like an interval measurement in statistical tests, although this might not really be appropriate.
In the field of analytical measurement, the z-multiplier is a measure of error. It indicates a statistical probability of error. It is calculated using standard formulas for normal distribution.
It is measurement on an ordinal scale. Level 1 is less than level 2 which is less than level 3 and so on. But the difference between levels 1 and 2 is not related to the difference between levels 2 and 3, etc.
a statistical is a question that has a variety of answers, but a non-statistical question has only one answer. like if i say "how old am i?" that is a non-statistical question because there is only one answer. But if I say "How old are the 6th and 7th grade students in school?" that is a statistical question because there will be various answers.
