In this report you will demonstrate your ability to identify variable types and performdescriptive statistics.

In Part 1 you will be presented several dependent variables. For each variable you will need to indicate

(1) whether the variable is nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio (level of measurement); (2) whether it is classified as discrete or continuous (scale).

In Part 2 you will be given 5 sets of data. You will calculate

(1) mean, (2) median, (3) mode, (4) range, (5) variance, and (6) standard deviation for each set of data. Be sure to show your work.

Part 1

For each of the following dependent variables indicate: whether the measurement scale is discrete or continuous. Whether the level of measurement is nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio.
