Operationalization refers to the process of defining and expressing a concept or variable in a way that can be measured or observed in a study or experiment. It involves transforming abstract concepts or constructs into specific, concrete measures or indicators that can be used for data collection ...
In the operationalization process we handle the concept of variable, taking into account this as a property or attribute of people or things and that vary from one subject to another and on the same subject at different times.Answer and Explanation: The operationalization process consists of strict...

Operationalization of terms in research is the process through which a researcher explains how the idea being researched is measured, observed, or manipulated. Operationalization interprets theoretical or ideological variables into particular procedures that demonstrate the variable's meaning. Operationalization...
Table 1 lists the six categories of variables of interest in the left hand column. The right hand column lists the corresponding locations in the model where that category of variable is either operationalized or subsumed within a stochastic distribution...
With sex as the centre variable of analyses, participants were stratified into 2 × 2 or 2 × 3 intersectional groups by categorizing individuals into different strata of sex (i.e., woman and man) and social class (i.e., family economic status, parental education level, and academic ...
The probability of detection (POD) is a variable associated with the SAR units. Previous studies have shown that the PODi can be modeled as an exponential function of coverage C (Frost, 1999a) in equation (6).(6)PODi=1−e−Ciwhere Ci=W/Strack, as defined in modern search theory,...
Considering each income-related predictor, in turn, we first fitted 3 regression models for each outcome variable in each sample. Model 1 predicted an outcome variable from contemporaneous values of one income-related predictor, plus covariates. Model 2 Discussion This study explored differences in ...
The most 24-h dietary recalls used in a single study was 8–12 over four months, with a variable number of recalls per participant [60]. With regards to study sample, 24-h dietary recalls were used with children in three studies [18,34,66], adolescents in two studies [38,69], ...
One of the keys to science and environmental literacy is systems thinking. Learning how to think about the interactions between systems, the far-reaching effects of a system, and the dynamic nature of systems are all critical outcomes of science learning. However, students need support to develop...
