Question

cassietta is taking an interest inventory. one of the questions asks her to select her preferred activity from among traveling, reading books, and cooking. the question does not give her a
one of the above\ option. what is the format of the interest inventory called?

multiple choice format
forced - choice format
constructed response format
check - all - that - apply format

Explanation:

In a forced - choice format, respondents are required to choose from the given options without an option to decline (like “none of the above”). Here, Cassietta must pick from traveling, reading books, or cooking. In a multiple - choice format, there could potentially be an option like “none of the above” (though not always). A constructed - response format requires the respondent to create an answer (e.g., an essay). A check - all - that - apply format allows selecting multiple options, but the key here is the lack of a non - selection option, which points to forced - choice.

Answer:

B. forced-choice format
