Greetings,
For this assignment, you will need to have read and reviewed the material for chapter 4 on levels of measurement. Open the article in the module on Identity Theft by Golladay and respond to the questions below.
1. What is the title of the journal the article was published in, and what year was it published?
2. What is the main research question/hypothesis offered by the authors?
3. How are each of the main dependent, independent, and control variables measured (which of the four levels) for the current study? How do you know?
4. Select any three of the given variables described in question #3 and assign a different level of measurement for each of the variables. What this means is, if you select the variable AGE, for example, and you noted in question #3 that age was measured as an ordinal level variable, I want you to show how it would me measured at the nominal or interval level. Explain for each of the three variables.
