An ordinal variable is a categorical variable for which the possible values are ordered. Ordinal variables can be consideredcount as “in between” categorical and quantitative variables. Example: Educational level might be categorized as.
1: Elementary school education
2: High school graduate
3: Some college
4: College graduate
5: Graduate degree

Could you please give us a clue about how service users apply for the occupational therapy service of SRACP? As we want to evaluate the convenience for applicants to get access to this service.

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?
