Document Summary
Real limits: boundaries that is exactly half way between two measurable scores onlyapplies to continuous var. Upper real limit (top interval), lower real limit (bottom interval) Ordinal - categories organized based on some observation (ex. Interval - ordered categories where the intervals are of equal size; no absolute zero (ex. Ratio - same as interval, but there is an absolute zero (ex. Number of correct answers, gain in heigh in 1 year) What are frequency distributions? definition: a way to present data in simple and accessible manner (descriptive stats) i. e. how many times does a number repeat itself. A list of different possible value of x. A list of number of times each value of x is observed in the data set. X: lists all values of the score from highest to lowest f: gives number of times (frequency) each score is seen in data.
