Interval level variables assume equal distances between objects on a scale, which is not a characteristic of nominal or ordinal data. Nominal data categorize without a specific order, while ordinal data categorize with a specific order but without assuming equal distances between categories. Interval data, however, not only categorize and order but also assume that the distances between each category are equal, thus incorporating elements of both nominal and ordinal data and adding the concept of equal intervals.
