Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bivariate analysis is appropriate in this case as Marco is comparing the safety perception of two groups of students (on-campus and off-campus). Univariate analysis would only involve analyzing data for one variable, while multivariate analysis involves at least three variables. Standard deviation is a measure of variability, not a method of analysis. Qualitative analysis is not appropriate in this case as Marco is examining a specific quantitative measure (perception of safety).
