•Standard Deviation
• A variable with values that indicate the order of the cases was
divided into a number of categories. The number of cases
tabulated in any category was the frequency.
• Percentage
• In order to obtain a measure of the relative
frequency of the respondents’ demographic
profile in a nominal scale and so as to
determine the relationship of their categories
with each other, percentages are used.
• Mean Score
• The mean score is used to determine if the
average score (or mean value) of the
respondents’ set of data is equal to the
sum of all the values in the data set
(divided by the total number of values).
• Standard Deviation
• Standard deviation is used to quantify the
amount of variation or dispersion of a set
of data values.
