places data into categories that are ordered by a predetermined
criteria
Omission Error
occurs when something (for example data or survey response) is
missing
Interval Data
is numerical data that is ordered, is equal distance apart and does
not have a natural zero
Reliable Data
is consistent and repeatable.
Random Error
represents errors in data caused by unpredictable statistical
fluctuations
Nominal Data
places data into "either or" categories or identifies by name or
characteristic
Data Management
includes cleaning and storage of collected data.
Big Data
is a massive amount of data that is difficult to process using
traditional database and software techniques
Ratio Data
is numerical data that has a natural zero allowing this data to be
added, subtracted, multiplied and divided.
Measurement Bias
is a prejudice in data that results when the sample is not
representative of the population be tested
