One-Dimensional Quality

One-Dimensional Quality refers to evaluating a product or service based on a single criterion or aspect, such as cost, speed, or durability. It means focusing on just one attribute when measuring quality, without considering other important factors. For example, choosing a product solely because it’s the cheapest ignores other qualities like reliability or performance. While this approach simplifies decision-making, it can overlook the full value or overall excellence of what’s being assessed. Effective quality assessment often requires considering multiple dimensions to get a complete understanding of a product’s or service’s true value.
