Numeric variables. A numeric variable, also known as a quantitative variable, is one that can assume a number of real valuesâsuch as age or number of people in a household. However, not all variables described by numbers are considered numeric.
Dummy variable: A categorical variable that has been dummy coded. Dummy coding (also called indicator coding) is usually used in regression models, but not ANOVA. A dummy variable can have only two values: 0 and 1. When a categorical variable has more than two values, it is recoded into multiple dummy variables.
