Study Notes

Variables and Associations

A continuous variable is a type of variable that can take on any value within a certain range or interval, and can be measured with infinite precision, such as height, weight, or temperature.
Latency refers to the time it takes for something to happen or respond, often used in the context of reaction time or delay.
A contingency table is a table used to display the frequency of each combination of values for two categorical variables, allowing for the analysis of the relationship between them.
A positive association between two variables means that as one variable increases, the other variable also tends to increase, and as one variable decreases, the other variable also tends to decrease, indicating a direct relationship between the two variables.
A variable is a characteristic or attribute that can take on different values or categories, and can be measured or observed, such as age, gender, or blood pressure.
