Weight is considered a ratio measurement. This is because it has a true zero point (an object can have zero weight) and allows for meaningful comparisons of magnitude; for example, an object weighing 10 kg is twice as heavy as one weighing 5 kg. Additionally, ratio scales permit the calculation of ratios, which is not possible with interval scales.
An interval-ratio variable is a type of continuous variable that possesses both interval and ratio properties. It has meaningful intervals between values, allowing for the measurement of differences, and also features a true zero point, which enables the calculation of ratios. Examples include temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit (interval) and height or weight (ratio). This allows for a wide range of statistical analyses and interpretations.
