What type of data is collected when the researcher is observing behaviors and marking a checklist as either yes or no? Nominal, ordinal, ratio, or interval?
Homework Answers
Nominal
A variable is nominal if it is categorical in nature (not a numerical value, but indicates the quality or category to which the variable belongs to) and there is no particular order to it. Answering 'Yes' or 'No' means you are putting the variable into either one of the above category. We also cannot say that 'Yes' > 'No' or vice versa. So, the variable is Nominal.

Directions: The data shown in the following histograms come from students who took introductory statistics between 2002 and 2008 from a small institution in the PNW (not UWT, by the way). 1. For each data set, determine the variable type: qualitative (categorical) or quantitative. 2. For each data set, determine the level of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio 3. Then describe the shape of each distribution using the terminology discussed in class: unimodal, bimodal, right-skewed, left-skewed, symmetric, or uniform....
