Correct Response: A. Categorical and interval/ratio data consist of information that can be counted up and displayed numerically. Values must come from a set collection of categories (categorical) or they must be numerical (interval/ratio). Therefore, they are best collected through closed-ended surveys where possible responses are limited and well defined. B, C, and D are incorrect because open-ended surveys (B), unstructured questionnaires (C), and one-on-one interviews (D) do not restrict the possible answers.
