Medical Statistics - 4 - Measurement Scales - Nominal, Ordinal, Interval And Ratio Scales Simplified
Medical statistics is an important part of our curriculum be it medical, surgical, nursing, dental or physiotherapy, or any other field. The topic is often difficult to grasp and is not liked by most. At Edusurg clinics, Dr. Gunjan Desai aims to simplify the concepts and at the same time make them interesting. The video gives a detailed explanation of the types of data such as qualitative or categorical and quantitative or numerical data and then explains the measurement scales in a very simplified manner such as the nominal scale, ordinal scale, interval scale and ratio scale.
With the upcoming videos in this playlist, the aim is to help you clear this topic easily with a proper grasp of the concepts of statistics so as to apply them in the research of your choice or in life.
