In the Social Sciences, the ordinal model of gathering data has identity and magnitude. It's ranked by order, but not amount (i.e. the differences between all the data points on a list might not be equidistant). For example, class rank or GPA; the #1 person in the class might only have gotten a 4.0, the #2 person got a 3.95, and the #3 person got a 3.80.
