Across
  1. 3. A variable whose values represent quantities, such as words recalled or response time.
  2. 5. Numerical data that can take any value within a range, such as response time.
  3. 8. A zero point representing the absence of the quantity measured, such as no elapsed time.
  4. 13. Classification describing what recorded values mean and which comparisons or calculations are meaningful.
  5. 15. Level of measurement with equal intervals but no true zero, such as temperature in Celsius.
  6. 16. Level of measurement involving ordered categories or ranks, without established equal intervals.
Down
  1. 1. The number of times a particular value or category occurs in a dataset.
  2. 2. Researcher whose 2009 partial replication investigated whether obedience to authority remained high decades after Milgram.
  3. 4. A conventional zero point that does not represent absence of the quantity, such as zero degrees Celsius.
  4. 6. A variable whose values represent group membership, such as preferred transport.
  5. 7. Numerical data taking separate, countable values, such as the number of words recalled.
  6. 9. Gaps between values on a measurement scale; when equal, identical numerical differences represent identical amounts of change.
  7. 10. Researcher whose 2014 study investigated whether children and great apes would abandon a learned strategy to match a peer majority.
  8. 11. Level of measurement involving categories without a meaningful order.
  9. 12. Level of measurement with equal intervals and a true zero, such as elapsed time.
  10. 14. Researcher whose 1969 study investigated whether a consistent minority could influence majority colour judgements and private perception.
  11. 17. A value's position within an ordered set, such as first, second or third.
