operationalize-construct

Purpose

Translate an abstract construct into observable indicators, measurement rules, and validity checks.

Input contract

required: [construct_definition, target_context]
optional: [theory, candidate_indicators, measurement_constraints]
constraints: [indicators must map to construct facets and declare direction]

Procedure

1. Decompose the construct into facets and boundary conditions. 2. Map each facet to observable indicators and measurement procedures. 3. Specify aggregation, polarity, missingness, and confound handling. 4. Record convergent, discriminant, and construct-irrelevant validity checks.

Output contract

produces: [construct_operationalization, indicator_map, measurement_rules, validity_checks]
delta_fields: [findings, decisions, uncertainties, open_questions]

Quality gates

  • Indicators cover the declared construct facets.
  • Operational rules are reproducible and distinguish proxy from direct measure.

Failure and counterexamples

Do not substitute an easy-to-measure proxy without stating the construct loss.

Provenance map

  • `resolved: operationalize-construct`
