Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Continuous measures allow for values to fall anywhere along a scale range, including decimal places, which reflects an intensity in the concept being measured. Discrete measures only allow for certain values to be assigned (such as whole numbers) and do not accurately reflect intensity. Absolute measures compare the value being measured to a fixed standard or unit of measurement, which may not always reflect intensity. Valid measures measure what they are supposed to measure, but do not necessarily reflect intensity.
