These arbitrary divisions create an ordinal categorical variable (ie there is an order or hierarchy). Furthermore
For simplicity of showing data our examples use contingency table data but in general the data ?le may have both categorical and quantitative explanatory variables Example: SAS modeling of mental health y= mental impairment (1=well 2=mild impairment 3=moderate impairment 4=impaired) x1= number of “life events”
B Ordinal variables are variables whose values have a natural order If they are represented as numbers the order of the numerical values should reflect the natural ordering Responses to an item on a questionnaire ranging from “Strongly Disagree” to “Strongly Agree” are ordinal data The letter grades
