Data from a political survey Data collected from an experiment Observed data
Secondary Sources: The person performing data analysis is not the data collector
Analyzing census data Examining data from print journals or data published on the internet.

Levels of Measurement
An ordinal scale classifies data into distinct
Student Grades
A, B, C, D, F
Chap 1-19
Levels of Measurement
An interval scale is an ordered scale in which the
difference between measurements is a meaningful quantity but the measurements do not have a true zero point.
A ratio scale is an ordered scale in which the
difference between the measurements is a meaningful quantity and the measurements have a true zero point.
