Week 10 Lesson
ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION
OF ASSESSMENT
RESULTS
Here starts
the lesson!
Learning Objectives:
1. determine the different ways in presenting
assessment results;
• values obtained
Continuous by measurement,
e.g., age, height
Classification of Variables
Independent – a
Dependent – a variable
variable which affects
which is affected by
the other variable e.g.,
another variable, e.g.,
number of hours spent
test scores
for studying
Levels of Measurements of Variables
• Nominal: data are categorical and the numbers
are used as identifiers or a representation.
• For example:
• The numbers on the back of a jersey (COED
1
Blazer 1 = Juan dela Cruz) and the social
security number are some examples of a
nominal data.
• If you conduct a survey and you will include
gender as a variable, code the Female as 1 and
Male as 2 or vice versa when you enter your
data into the computer. Thus, using numbers 1
and 2 can be used to represent the categories
of data.
Levels of Measurements of Variables
• Ordinal: it denotes an ordered series of
associations or rank order.
• For example:
• In a contest, an individuals are competing to
2
achieve first, second, or third place. The first,
second, and third place represents ordinal data.
• Likert-type scales also represent ordinal data.
Basically, these scales do not represent a
measurable quantity. An individual may respond
8 to a question and he actually feel less than
someone who responded 5. Therefore, Likert-
type scales represent a ranking.

• 10 degree Fahrenheit or -10 degrees
Fahrenheit are an interval data. Each of these
scales are a direct measures of a quantity with
equality of units. Thus, zero does not
represent the absolute lowest value. Rather, it
is the point on a scale with numbers both
above and below it.

absolute zero (no numbers exist below zero).
• For example:
• commonly used in physical measures like height
and weight. If one is measuring a height of a
person in centimeters, there is quantity, equal
units, and that measure cannot go below zero
centimeters. A negative height is not possible.
DATA COLLECTION
- gathering information
from some person or some
other ways to get data.
Data collection is done to
keep on record for further
use, to make essential
decisions about different
problems, and to
disseminate information on
to others.

number of class intervals is between 5 and 20 depending
on the nature of data.
• Remarks: There are other alternatives to determining the
number of intervals.

The contingency table
This is the table which shows the responses of subjects
to one variable as a function of another variable. One
type of this kind of table is the row by column where the
columns refer to the samples and the rows refer to the
choices or alternatives.
Scatter Graph
• a graph used to present
measurements or values that are
thoughts to be related.
Line Chart
• a graphical presentation of data
especially useful for showing
trends over a period of time.
Pie Chart
• it is a circular graph that is useful in showing how
a total quantity is distributed among a grouped of
categories. Each pieces of pie represent an amount
on the total portion of the category.
