I am being asked to describe the relevant data characteristics for a linear regression analysis and need to include the independent variable, the dependent variable, the type of data, and the quantity of data. This problem is asking to see if the participation in a wellness program by nurses in a hospital (independent variable) directly affects the rate of attrition by these nurses (dependent variable). The timeline is a period of 36 months (quantity of data). What would be considered the type of date in this example?
