Next, the researchers inserted the Magneto DNA sequence into the genome of a virus, together with the gene encoding green fluorescent protein, and regulatory DNA sequences that cause the construct to be expressed only in specified types of neurons.
Conceptual delimitation of the construct to be evaluated.
The construct to be measured is equivalent to "ability for use" (Bachman 2007, p. 56).
One costly approach is to codon optimize each subtype construct to be examined.
To do so requires an adequate working definition of the construct to be measured (Hartig et al. 2012, p. 147).
They found the diverging pin construct to be mechanically superior to cement alone and cement with intramedullary Steinmann pins.
This important phenomenon allows for the construct to be repopulated with cells and to be connected to the blood torrent upon transplantation.
Responsiveness – the ability of an instrument to detect change over time in the construct to be measured [16] was evaluated by the original developer but not in this study.
The content validity - the degree to which the content of a health-related patient reported outcome (HR-PRO) instrument is an adequate reflection of the construct to be measured [16].
The overarching construct to be measured is Civil Engineering "proficiency", which is defined as the … demonstrated capacity to solve problems by applying basic engineering and scientific principles, engineering processes and generic skills.
Face validity, i.e. the degree to which the items of an instrument indeed looks as though they are an adequate reflection of the construct to be measured [16], was also implemented during this assessment.
