Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'qualitative', derived from the Late Latin 'qualitativus' (pertaining to quality, from Latin 'qualis' meaning 'of what kind'), and 'assessment', from the Middle French 'assessement' and Latin 'assessare' (to sit beside, hence to assist in the office of a judge or to appraise). Together, the phrase emerged in the mid-20th century across social sciences and business to denote evaluations based on non-numerical characteristics.
