What is the level of measurement? _____ Ordinal _______ Below is a frequency distribution for majors for a Western university. a. Fill in the table below with the missing information.

Explanation / Answer

Perecentage can be determined by the formula

% = (f/N)x 100

Percentage of 'never use' = (96/1250)x100 = 7.68

Percentage of 'rarely use = (214/1250)x100 = 17.12

Percentage of 'occassionally use' = (572/1250)x100 = 45.76

Percentage of 'all the time' = (368/1250)x100 = 29.44%

c) This is ordinal measurement because here we are measuring the item on a scale. Here the scale is the internet usage frequency. Such measurements are 'ordinal'
