class plspm.scale.Scale

Bases: enum.Enum

Used to specify the measurement type of a manifest variable when performing calculations with nonmetric data.

• RAW for numerical variables that require no transformation;
• NUM for numerical variables that are suitable for linear transformation;
• ORD for ordinal variables that are suitable for monotonic transformation;
• NOM for nominal variables that are suitable for non-monotonic transformation.

NOM = <plspm.scale._Nominal object>

NUM = <plspm.scale._Numeric object>

ORD = <plspm.scale._Ordinal object>

RAW = <plspm.scale._Raw object>
