I'm trying to find an easy way to remember the 4 Scales of Measurement in statistics:
Nominal
Ordinal
Interval
Ratio
Any suggestions?
Does anyone have an easy way to remember the Scales of Measurement in statistics?
Memorize them in that order, each level has one more quality that the one before it did not.
Nominal has no magnitude, intervals, or rational zero
Ordinal has magnitude but no intervals or rational zero
Interval has magnitude, intervals, but no rational zero
Ratio has magnitude, intervals, and a rational zero
Here is a good site that explains the scales:
