I am designing a questionnaire for community-dwelling older adults. The education variable is set as category, which includes primary, junior, high school, and university. How do you think?

Well, I would suggest using the years of receiving education and still set it as a categorical variable. Because the older generation relatively receives less education and many people even did not complete primary school. For example, you may set 0 years, 1-3 years, 4-6 years, and so on.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
