The levels of measurement from the lowest to the highest level are nominal‚ ordinal‚ interval‚ and ratio Variables measured at the nominal level of measurement are at the lowest level and must follow three rules: (1) the data categories must be exhaustive (each datum will fit into at least one category identified by the researcher)‚ (2) the data categories must be exclusive (each datum will fit into only one category)‚ and (3) the data cannot be rank ordered. Nominal data differ from ordinal data
