The themes are distinct categories without any inherent order, so this variable is measured
nominally. The mode, the most frequent category in categorical data, is the best measure of
central tendency.
Each theme category's tweet percentages:
➔
Informative: 82.8%
➔
Morale-boosting: 9.4%
➔
Political: 6.9%
The majority of viral tweets were "Informative," 82.8%. This suggests that most G7 tweets
during the COVID-19 pandemic provided crisis updates.
4.
To analyze the variable from Table 1, we must determine the level of measurement,
which is an interval, as the number of followers is a continuous quantitative variable.
Let's calculate these values: 4.7, 4.6, 0.4, 1.7, 1.6, 71.4, 1.1, 0.2
Median = (1.7 + 1.6) / 2 = 1.65 million
Mean = (4.7 + 4.6 + 0.4 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 71.4 + 1.1 + 0.2) / 8 = 10.7125 million
