List out types of scale?

1. Nominal scale
2. Ordinal scale
3. Interval scale
4. Ratio scale

Nominal scale: Assigns numbers to categories without any inherent order or meaning. Used for classification and labeling.

Ordinal scale: Assigns numbers to categories with an inherent order, but the intervals between numbers are not necessarily equal. Used for ranking and ordering.

Interval scale: Assigns numbers to categories with an inherent order and equal intervals between numbers. Has a meaningful zero point, but not a true zero. Used for measuring continuous variables.

Ratio scale: Assigns numbers to categories with an inherent order, equal intervals between numbers, and a true zero point. Used for measuring exact quantities.

Other specialized scales:

- Logarithmic scale: Used for representing data that varies over several orders of magnitude.
- Likert scale: Used for measuring attitudes or opinions on a scale with several response options.
- Thurstone scale: Used for measuring attitudes or opinions by assigning numbers to statements that reflect different levels of agreement or disagreement.
- Guttman scale: Used for measuring attitudes or opinions by creating a series of items that progressively reflect a higher level of agreement or disagreement.
- Semantic differential scale: Used for measuring attitudes or opinions by having respondents rate concepts on a series of bipolar scales.
- Multidimensional scaling (MDS): Used for representing relationships among objects or concepts in a multidimensional space.
