Russian term or phrase: градация качественного признака
Ниже на графике представлена смоделированная зависимость разброса 95%-ого доверительного интервала для градации качественного признака составляющей 50% от объема выборки. При данном объеме выборки при наличии 40% пациентов, выбывших из-за неполных данных (итого 240 пациентов), разброс 95%-ого ДИ, рассчитанного методом Уилсона (Wilson), не превысит 10% для градации качественного признака, составляющей 50% от объема выборки.

ranking of qualitative attributes
Explanation:
The Wilson reference (here used apparently for completion rates) is "Wilson, E.B. (1927) Probable inference, the law of succession, and statistical inference. J. Am. Stat. Assoc. 22, 209–212".

"qualitative attributes" such as perceptions are ranked, and the graph referred to shows confidence intervals for rankings.

There are contexts in which"gradation" is fine but we'd need more context to know if it works here - see my discussion entry.

agree  TechLawDC: "Attributes" is merely a synonym for "characteristics". Perhaps I should have given an entire list of synonyms (including: features, traits, properties, peculiarities, aspects, and parameters). Also, "ranking" is merely a synonym for "gradation".

  -> Thanks TechLawDC. I totally agree re characteristics. The reason I answered is that "ranking" is distinct from and, IMHO, more likely than some sort of gradual variation or "gradation".
