If narrow (the two numbers at either end of the range are relatively close) precision is high and we can be more confident in the results. This research evidence must then be applied within the context of the. You are either dead or alive, cannot be both. Ordinal, interval, or ratio can be analyzed as dichotomous outcomes.

Comparing percentage of people in intervention group who did no develop a fe(cid:448)er (cid:894)
