Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mode is most appropriate for variables measured at the nominal level, where data can be categorized into distinct groups or categories, but cannot be ranked or measured in terms of quantity or magnitude. For variables measured at the ordinal or interval-ratio level, other measures of central tendency such as the median or mean may be more appropriate.
