D) when the proportion of unsatisfactory responses for each of these respendents is large. 22) A seale whose numbers serve only as labels or tags for identifying and elasifying objects with a strict one-to-one correspondence between the vumbers and the objects is called x(n) A) nominal scale B) ratio scale C) ordinal scale D) interval scale 23) Which of the following primary seales of measurement is recognized as the most basic or limited? A) ordinal seales B) nominal scales C) ratio scales D) interval scales 24) A(n) is the highest level of measurement and allows the researcher to identify or classify objects, rank order the objects, and compare intervals or differences. A) ratio scale B) nominal scale C) ordinal scale D) interval scale 25) A(n) is one of two types of scaling techniques in which each stimulus object is scaled independently of the others. A) independence scale B) nonrandom scale C) comparative scale D) noncomparative seale 26) A is one of the two types of scaling techniques in which there is direct comparison of stimulus objects with one another. A) random scale 3) nonrandom scale comparative scale ) noncomparative scale 7) A(n) is a scale in which the numbers are used to rate objects such that umerically equal distances on the scale represent equal distances in the characteristic eing measured. nominal scale ordinal scale interval scale ratio scale
