{{attack|3|The time dimension should indeed be defined. However, I encourage to use variables like ''''Current''' body weight of a random 0-2-year-old Finnish child'. This way, the variable itself remains useful in new assessments; of course, the data used to find a result gradually becomes out-of-date, but it is only data. See [[Clairvoyant test]]. |--[[User:Jouni|Jouni]] 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)}}

⇤7: All variables should be categorised to at least one category under Category:Dimension of the description. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)

Scope

Question

What is the mean body weight and variation of Finnish children aged 0-24 months


Boundaries

Current Finnish children body weight


Definition

Data

Visual extrapolation from the graphs

Excel sheet --6: Instead of an URL, a 'media:' link can be used to files in the wiki. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)

⇤4: For data, the original source (study, publication) should be mentioned if possible. In addition, it looks like if the Excel sheet and the website are two independent sources of data, but apparently this is not the case. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)

Causality

none

⇤5: Data is not a variable and cannot therefore be causally related to a variable. If no upstream variables have been defined, the 'Causality' sub-attribute should contain simply 'None defined'. --Jouni 06:30, 2 October 2008 (EEST)
