The term quantitative refers to variables that are numerical-valued, for example age, annual salary, number of siblings, etc. Quantitative variables can be either interval (e.g., temperature, IQ scores) or ratio (e.g., salary, distance from work).

Qualitative Indicators

The term qualitative refers to variables whose values are words, such as Agree, Disagree, Always, Never, etc. Qualitative variables can either be nominal (e.g., gender (values: male, female)) or ordinal (e.g. agreement in a given statement values: (totally disagree, disagree, neither agree nor disagree, agree, totally agree).

You can change the country of interest by simply clicking on the respective country on the map. For example, if you click on Greece, the displayed charts will emphasise on Greece to provide a clear picture of the position of the selected country amongst the others. More specifically, clicking on a country has a threefold effect:

1. The value of the selected indicator for the respective country is pointed out in the bar οn the interactive map.
2. In the first diagram the selected country is displayed in grey so that the user easily understands its position in comparison to the rest of the countries for the selected indicator.
3. Provided that there is timely data for the selected indicator, the second diagram will show the evolution of the indicator through the years for the respective country.
