Interval
Ordinal
Ratio
Nominal Validity is:
A data item, such as characteristics, numbers, properties, or quantities, that can be measured or counted.
The extent to which an idea or measurement is well-founded and an accurate representation of the real world.
A measurement level with equal distances between the points and a zero-starting point.
Raw unorganized information from which conclusions can be made.
