Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ratio scales have true zero points and allow for meaningful ratios to be calculated, meaning one value can be exactly twice as large as another value on the same scale. Other measurement scales, such as nominal and ordinal, do not allow for meaningful ratios to be calculated. Interval scales may have equal intervals but do not have true zeros, which limits their use for ratio calculations.
