. Knowledge of levels of measurement (e.g., nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio)

Special notes:
. This is NOT a software training seminar. This is a statistical training seminar. Some examples will be conducted in SPSS but personal computers will not be provided and they are definitely not required.
