A January 2007 Gallup Poll question asked, "In general, do you think things have gotten better or gotten worse in this country in the last five years?"
Possible answers were "Better", "Worse", "No Change", "Don’t Know", and "No Response".
What kind of a variable is the response?

The response is qualitative variable due to its possible categories. In short, the response can only be divided into categories and cannot be interpreted numerically in a meaningful way. Thus, response is a qualitative variable. Also, the categories involves ordering like better and worse etc so, the measurement of scale would be ordinal in this scenario.
