About this document

Four Types of Data in Statistics by Aizel Almonte is a document available to read on EtoBox.

There are 4 main types of data in statistics: nominal data which labels variables without order or quantitative value; ordinal data which ranks categories but without defined distances; interval data which is measured and ordered with equal distances but no true zero; and ratio data which is measured, ordered, and has a true zero point. Understanding the different data types is important for selecting the proper statistical analyses and making correct assumptions about the data.
