being studied
Kinds of Variables
1. Variables according to the number
of categories
1. Categorical Variables – represent
unordered categories, groups or classes
(multiple intelligences, learning styles,
civil status)
2. Dichotomous variables – represent only
two categories (sex - M/F, side -L/R,
diabetes - type 1 / type 2)
Kinds of Variables

3. Polychotomous variables – have

more than two categories (educational
attainment, economic status)
4. Continuous variables – take on any
range of value (weight, height, speed,
blood glucose level)
Kinds of Variables

variables, the reasons of changes in the
dependent variables
 Dependent variables – refer to those
that are affected by the cause variables.
Kinds of Variables
3. Variables according to their nature
 Concrete variables - are variables that
can be perceived through the senses (height,
skin, color, taste)
 Abstract variables – are variables of
quality (knowledge level, perception
level, recovery rate)
Kinds of Variables
4. Variables according to the number being
studied
a. Univariate study – one variable
being studied
b. Bivariate study - two variables
being studied
