Although the concept of comprehensiveness encompasses a certain idealism, there have been serious efforts to define a comprehensive reserve system.
Evidence of comprehensiveness (defined in this research program as efforts to improve equity in access, community empowerment and participation, social and environmental health determinants, and intersectoral action) was found in many of the cases.
Furthermore, until recently there was no comprehensive conceptual framework available to define physical function in RA and with which to judge the relevance and comprehensiveness of the items of PF scales.
Despite the seemingly limited detectable repertoire, a combination of high temporal resolution, comprehensiveness and superb data analysis allowed the authors to define distinct behavioral patterns and discriminate changes robustly associated with an early onset obesity phenotype.
Comprehensiveness is defined by the scope of practice and a wide range of services provided by FPs [ 27].
Comprehensiveness, as defined by both the JANIS (1997) criteria and Possingham et al. (2006) overlaps with the term representativeness (Section III.4).
The strengths of this study were mainly attributed to (1) the large population-based sample size to power the study, (2) the comprehensiveness of data within the NHIRD, (3) the use of specific ICD diagnostic codes to define comorbid diseases and (4) the control of confounding variables by matching the study groups according to age, sex and socioeconomic status.
We use comprehensiveness, adequacy and representativeness (CAR) criteria as a framework to examine the efficiency of existing protected areas and to define gaps in the current reserve system, based on multivariate environmental space.
The framework comprises a three-dimensional space defined by the following axes: the comprehensiveness of the SD coverage; the degree of 'integration' of the techniques and themes; and the extent to which a strategic perspective is adopted.
The dimensions are framed and defined in a manner that balances comprehensiveness with comparability across diverse programs.
