Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interval level is the scale of measurement where differences between values are meaningful and linear, and the location of origin or zero point is arbitrary. This means that values can be added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided, but there is no true zero point. Examples of interval level measurements include temperature measured in Fahrenheit or Celsius, and time measured in seconds.
