💢 Constructs
📌 Constructs are abstractions that cannot be observed directly but are useful in interpreting empirical data and building theories.
Examples :
⭕️ motivation
⭕️ anxiety
⭕️ reading readiness
⭕️ underachievement
⭕️ creativity
⭕️ self-efficacy
Constructs may be defined in two ways:
1⃣ a constitutive definition, which gives their general meaning, like a dictionary type of definition.
2⃣ an operational definition gives meaning to a construct by specifying the operations that researchers would perform to measure or manipulate the construct.
