The most suitable average for qualitative measurements is ..................... .
Answer: B
The most suitable average for qualitative measurements is the median.
Qualitative characteristics such as intelligence, honesty or beauty cannot be measured numerically, but people can be ranked by them. The median, the value of the middle item when items are arranged in order, needs only ranks, so it is the average used for such data.
The arithmetic and geometric means require actual numerical values. The correlation coefficient measures association between two variables and is not an average at all.
