Week003–Levels of Measurement
Laboratory Exercise 001

Objective/s:
At the end of this activity, you should be able to:
 Create spreadsheet file;
 Compute for the frequency of the data per category; and
 Formulate a conclusion or analysis about the experiment.

What to Prepare for the Activity:

 Microsoft Excel or Spreadsheet/SPSS

Procedure:
1. Load Microsoft Excel or any electronic spreadsheet. Enter the data from the table below.
2. Compute the frequency of all nominal variables by category using the =COUNIF() function.
You can use the =countif() by supplying the range and the criteria. For example, to
determine the frequency of number of 1’s from B1 to B30, use =COUNTIF(B1:B30, “=1”)
3. Make another table for the results and create a graph
4. Transfer the results in Microsoft Word Application. Give your interpretation to the results.
Use the given format
