Nature of the data practice
1. What is the nature of the outcome data?
Scaled? Ordinal?
Nominal Proportional?Nominal?
2. What is the nature of the outcome data?
Note: By outcome data we mean, the data that is being
influenced by something. For example, โDo humanities or
science professors drive faster?โ
The outcome data is not professors but speed.
3. Scaled data provides exact amounts.
Central Tendency, Spread, or Symmetry?
12.5 feet60 degrees
4. Scaled data provides exact amounts.
Central Tendency, Spread, or Symmetry?
80 Miles per hour
12.5 feet60 degrees
1st Place 2nd Place 3rd Place
Ordinal or ranked data provides comparative amounts.
5. Scaled data provides exact amounts.

Ordinal or ranked data provides comparative amounts.
Nominal data names or puts values in categories.

11. Does product A or B have the highest profit
margin in terms of $$?
Scaled? Ordinal?
Nominal Proportional?Nominal?
12. Does product A or B have the highest profit
margin in terms of $$?
Scaled? Ordinal?
Nominal Proportional?Nominal?
13. Does product A or B have the highest profit
margin in terms of $$?
Scaled? Ordinal?
Nominal Proportional?Nominal?
14. Does product A or B have the highest profit
margin in terms of $$?
Scaled? Ordinal?
Nominal Proportional?Nominal?
Note โ even though product A and B are categories and
thus nominal, the focus is on what we call the outcome
which in this case is $$.
15. Does product A or B have the highest profit
margin in terms of $$?
Scaled data is data that gives you exact amounts.

33. Important Note
Parametric statistics under (the difference
category) are those statistics that use scaled
data. Because scaled data can use the mean in
their calculations, parametric tests use the
mean.
34. Important Note
Non-Parametric statistics under the difference
category are those statistics that use ordinal
data or nominal proportional data (%) Because
these data types cannot use the mean in their
calculations, non-parametric tests use the
median.
35. In this course you will not learn how to use non-
parametric tests under the difference category.
36. But, you will learn the parametric tests under
the difference category.
