Study Notes

Survey of Sociology Students

  • The survey was conducted at the beginning of the semester among students of the School of Sociology, First Semester, Section 12.

Variables and Classification

  • The survey consists of 4 variables:
    • V1: Age (in years)
    • V2: Residence in the parish (before or after the landslide)
    • V3: Literacy (can read and write)
    • V4: Educational level achieved

Classification Systems

  • V1: Numerical (age in years)
  • V2: Nominal (before or after the landslide)
  • V3: Dichotomous (can read and write: yes/no)
  • V4: Ordinal (sequence of educational levels)

Measurement Levels

  • V1: Ratio (numerical)
  • V2: Nominal
  • V3: Nominal
  • V4: Ordinal

Principles of Data Matrices

  • The first principle: V3 does not satisfy the first principle, as it has a "no apply" option.
  • The second principle: V2 satisfies the second principle, as it has only two categories.

Data Analysis

  • The survey consists of 20 responses, with each response including the 4 variables.

Variable Analysis

  • V4 (Educational level):
    • Conclusion 1: Most students have completed at least a basic education.
    • Conclusion 2: Some students have achieved higher educational levels.

Importance of Variables

  • Variables V10, V11, V12, and V14 are not present in the survey, as the survey only has 4 variables (V1 to V4).
  • No information can be obtained from these non-existent variables.
