I am trying to figure out if the FIM is considered ordinal or interval data for the purposes of statistical testing. I know it is an ordinal scale but has it been Rasched to convert it to interval data? Do I use ordinal or interval stats with the FIM when looking at differences in FIM scores over time?
Thank you
