The word means to "put in order." It can be measured as a
frequency, and the mean of ordinal data is often calculated. In
healthcare might include patient satisfaction surveys using a
Likert scale.
Ordinal Data
Essential for comparing data across systems, especially among
patients with varying co-morbid diseases and complex treatment
modalities. Multivariate regression analyses can be used to
analyze and ___________. This analysis model looks at each
measured factor to the patient's risk of a particular outcome.

to identify areas of high variance.
Histogram
Normal ___________ visually reflects a well-formed bell curve.
Variation may appear to be skewed outside the normal
distribution and require additional testing for statistical
significance.
