The document discusses the characteristics of variable levels in statistics, specifically interval and ratio levels. It clarifies that interval levels do not possess an absolute zero point, while ratio levels do have a meaningful zero. This distinction is important for making comparisons, such as stating one length is 'twice' another.

True or False A characteristic of a variable on interval level is t.pdf
- 1. True or False: A characteristic of a variable on interval level is that it has an absolute zero point. Solution No, this characteristic is in ratio level but not interval level. In interval, zero is just a location point, and is not unique. In ratio, zero is meaningful. This is why it is meaningful to say one length is "twice" the other length.
