Question

Determine the level of measurement of the variable below.

Dress color

Choose the correct answer below.

A.Ratio

B.Nominal

C.Ordinal

D.Interval

Answer 1

Answer

The correct answer is (B) Nominal

When we cannot compare the categories i.e. we cannot say that which category is better and hence we cannot order it. That level of measurement is Nominal.

Here We cannot order dress color and hence it is a nominal Variable.

In all the rest ordinal , ratio and interval we can order the category and hence they all are incorrect.

Hence, the correct answer is (B) Nominal
