This process required a specific set of skills which, once understood and practiced, could be operationalized in a manner that would support the implementation of the four areas of early learning laid out in the BC Early Learning Framework.
Behavior was operationalized in a heterogeneous manner across studies, including both true behavioral measures and proxies.
Socioeconomic status in adolescence was operationalized in the same manner as in our previous reports (8, 10, 11).
For example, bringing in medical input which cannot be operationalized in a quantitative manner is crucial for acceptance by the medical community.
After much discussion, it was decided that our approach to measurement design could not be specifically tied to a structured set of circumstances, events, or exemplars that would impose observational restrictions; and the 'constructs' associated with patient well-being could not be operationalized in a typical manner.
Gross activity was operationalized and scored in the following manner: 0 = no movement, 1 = head movement only, 2 = forepaw movement only, 3 = head and forepaw movement only, 4 = hindlimb movement only, 5 = head and hindlimb movement only, and 6 = head, forepaw, and hindlimb movement.
The measurement models could be operationalized in a reliable and valid manner.
The NARQ covers both Gross's scales Reappraisal and Suppression which were operationalized in a more behavior-related manner.
By definition, simplification leads to a loss of nuance and complexity and should take place in a transparent manner through clearly defined and operationalized central concepts (such as migration policy, policy change and restrictiveness), conceptually informed categories and coding processes.
* Potential suicide misclassification was operationalized as a binary outcome measure of manner of death: undetermined intent (1) and suicide (0).
