Missing responses refer to values that were not provided or were not properly recorded, which can happen due to ambiguous answers or mistakes in the recording process. Inconsistent responses refer to values that do not match within the same respondent, while out-of-range values are values that fall outside the expected range for a variable. Invalid responses are values that do not make sense or have no logical meaning, while edits refer to changes made to the data after collection to correct errors or adjust for missing values.
