Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nominal measurement is the simplest level of measurement that involves assigning numbers or names to objects in a set without any specific order or mathematical interpretation. It is based on the description or identification of an attribute, characteristic or quality of the object, rather than its measurement or quantification. Therefore, the only characteristic unique to the nominal type of measurement is description.
