nominal scale
|
labels observations so that they fall into different categories; no rank or order
|
|
ordinal scale
|
the categories have separate names and are also ranked in terms of magnitude; rank and order apply
|
|
interval scale
|
consists of an ordered set of categories with equal intervals between points on the scale; addition and subtraction is possible, but multiplication and division are not
|
|
ratio scale
|
an interval scale with the additional feature of an absolute zero; addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
|
|
error variance
|
variance not due to the IV
|
|
independent events
|
occurrence is not correlated with the occurrence of another event
|
|
central limit theorem
|
as the size of samples from the population approach infinity, the distribution of the means of those samples gets to be more and more normal
|
|
family-wise type I error rate
|
when there are multiple comparisons, the probability of making at least one type I error
|
|
per-comparison error rate
|
probability of error for each indivudal analysis
|
|
within group variance
|
sampling error
|
|
