Types of scales of measurement. There are four types of scales of measurement:- A. QUALITATIVE DATA: 1. Nominal scale: (can not be ordered) uses names, labels, or symbols to assign each measurement to one of a limited number of categories that cannot be ordered. Examples: Blood type (A/B/AB/O) sex (Male/female) race (Somali/ Oromo) marital status (married/not married/ divorced). If there are only two possible categories the data is said to be Dichotomous ( e.g. row 9K, Male/FEmalley, sau sos 16 2. Ordinal scale (categories can be placed in order): assigns each measurement to one of a limited number of categories that are ranked in terms of a graded order. Examples: | *A questionnaire may ask respondents how. happy they are with quality of services provided at the hospital, the choices can be: very happy, quite happy, unhappy, vey mnhanny 2. Ordinal scale (categories can be placed in order): assigns each measurement to one of a limited number of categories that are ranked in terms of a graded order. Examples; *A questionnaire may ask respondents bow happy they are with quality of services provided at the hospital, the choices can be: very happy, quite happy, unhappy, vey unhappy. 2/26/2018, *Degree of malnutrition = mild, moderate, severe *Socio-economic status x ‘> = upper, middle, lower | 2726/2018, By Dr. HAMZE AU ABDILLAHL 18 *Degree of malnutrition = mild, moderate, severe *Socio-economic status = upper, middle, lower Se B. QUANTITATIVE DATA: (Numerical data). Continuous data: * Interval scale * — Ratio scale * Discrete (numbers) 3. Interval scale (equally spaced intervals): assigns each measurement to one of an unlimited number of categories that are equally spaced. It has no true zero point. Example: body temperature measured on Celsius or Fahrenheit, heart rate measured per second. Thus the difference of interval between 5kg and 10kg is same as that between 20kg and 25kg. These kind of measurement can be converted into dichotomous nominal scale e.g. afebrile (oral temp < 37) febrile (>37) also can be ordered (ordinal scale). 4.Ratio scale: measurement begins at a true zero point and the scale has equal space. Ratio data is similar to interval scales but it is the ratio of two measurements and also have a true zero. Examples: Height per weight, blood pressure. 5. Discrete data: (numbers) All values are clearly separated from each other, although numbers are used. Examples: number of — surgery Operations performed in one month. Number of newly diagnosed psychiatric patients last year. 2/26/2018 ByOc Har Variables ¢Variable: A characteristic which takes different values in different persons, places, or things. *Qualitative variable: The notion of magnitude is absent or implicit. eQuantitative variable: Variable that has magnitude. *Discrete variable: It can only have a finite number of values in any given interval. *Continuous variable: It can have an infinite number of possible values in any given interval. 2n6fo1e 6 Dr: HAMZE ALI ABDILLAHI 23 Data The term DATA refers to (Items of information) Systems for collecting data 1.Regular system (routine data collecting system): Registration of events as they become available. 2.Ad hoc system (non-routine): A form of survey to collect information that is not available on a regular basis. 1. 5. Examples; Routine system: Census: enumeration of all individuals in a country on a fixed day. Vital registrations: birth, deaths, marriage, divorce, ete. Disease notification: international notification, like cholera, national notification like polio, cholera, hepatitis = notification is from district level to national level to international level. Disease registry: TB, cancer, stroke, birth defects Medical records: schools, colleges, industries Hospital records Environmental health records 2/26/2018 By Dr. HAMZE ALI ABDILLAH 25 2. Non-routine Disease surveillance: Polio, malaria, AIDS= it is important for control, prevention and eradication. Surveys: nutritional status by interviewing examination or postal enquiry based. Social schemes: medical insurance, sickness absenteeism, disability benefits, welfare schemes Economic data: Consumption of goods, export and import, drugs, employment = helps panning commission for formulation of health policies Demographic data: population movement, major source of data 1.Primary data: collected from the items or individual respondents directly for the purpose of certain study. 2.Secondary data: which had been collected by certain people or agency, and statistically treated and the information contained in it is used for other purpose. 2/26/2018 By Dr. HAMZE ALI ABDILLAHI 27 Cc OTATISTICS “Derinition Statistics us 0 baumch that deals with every aspect te date Statts tal Krowlidye Aulps to choose the poropex metho o Callecting he dda, anck employ Yhese amples um dhe Laxnect is Puocers 5 tn Oxdex oo efeciely btoduce the wus.
