Answer to Question 1

Likert measures opinions or ratings at the ordinal level. Bogardus social distance scale measures the amount of social distance separating groups. Semantic differential captures connotations that people associate with a rating. Guttman scaling evaluates the
data after a researcher collects them.

Answer to Question 2

It means that the unit fits into one and only one variable category - not across many

categories.
