Given below are two statements. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Measurement is the assignment of numerals to objects, traits and behaviours according to a fixed set of rules, so Statement 1 states a sound definition.

A test is a systematic procedure that samples a person's behaviour and scores it through standardized administration, so Statement 2 is equally accurate.

Statement 1 captures the quantifying function that turns qualities into comparable numbers.

Statement 2 captures the sampling function, since no test can observe every instance of behaviour.

Both descriptions are drawn from standard psychometric usage, so neither is false and neither contradicts the other.

Stevens gave the classic scales of measurement, nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio.
